Bug Report?

Hello,
If any non-text block object (box, cylinder, etc) is explicitly positioned relative to a text object (technically also a block object having anchors n, ne, e, etc), then the non-text block object auto-fits. I did not expect this behavior and offer this for consideration as a bug.
The simplest code that demonstrates the behavior is as follows:
A: text "A" B: box "B" with w at A.e→ /pikchrshow
"Previous" and "nth" references have the same results:
A: text "A" B: box "B" with w at previous .e C: box "C" D: box "D" with w at B.width+C.width right of A.e E: box "E" F: box "F" with w at B.width+C.width+D.width+E.width right of first text .e G: box "G" with w at previous .e→ /pikchrshow
A non-text block object explicitly positioned relative to an explicitly fitted non-text block object does not have the same behavior.
A: box "A" fit B: box "B" with w at A.e→ /pikchrshow
Thank you for considering; apologies if this is intended behavior.
Thank you very much for your time and work on Pikchr.
