Subtraction: point preview missing

I personally don't think that it should have a preview. How does it know that this is not a vector or a colour?

the Addition does and probably shouldn't IMHO

I think if you want to see a point from this kind of operator then you should have to pass the results into a Point Param

Thanks. You've outlined an interesting discrepancy, and I think I agree with you.

It does provide point preview, whenever the output is of type point.

If you subtract two points, you get a vector. If you subtract a vector from a point, you get another point.

Thanks for providing further explanation, but I'm still a little confused. Should the addition component provide point preview?

Yes, and it does.
