1) In Hollywood they draw red ("blood") lines with transparent inc all the time.
2) There is no problem to draw 7 mutually perpendicular lines as long as lines are not straight. Moreover, clients never asked for mutually perpendicular lines.
There are other solutions too, such as 7-dimensional space and imaginary lines.
The "expert" looked quite inexperienced when he started his answer with "No".
True, but to take the silly video, and mix in a real issue with meetings like this, we've got a problem of terminology. In standard geometry, a line, by definition, is straight. Of course we can't assume the way other people are using words agrees with our own technical definitions, so I think you solutions are reasonable.

Both requirements could be solved:
1) In Hollywood they draw red ("blood") lines with transparent inc all the time.
2) There is no problem to draw 7 mutually perpendicular lines as long as lines are not straight. Moreover, clients never asked for mutually perpendicular lines.
There are other solutions too, such as 7-dimensional space and imaginary lines.
