I think the word “solve” is better than “hide” here.

Fusion 360’s heuristics are so good that I rarely run into these problems. When I do, it’s usually because it was a drastic change to a previous feature in the timeline and I’m expecting to encounter issues because it’s a really fundamental change.

that's basically because all commercial cad software are built on the same 3 geometric kernels (none of which are open source) and have robust and mature solutions. FreeCAD's is improving over time but it's a game of catch-up and the math and algorithms involved are complex.

The kernel FreeCAD uses doesn't really have a robust heuristic for this, so FreeCAD had to implement its own.
