One thing I can tell is that I have bought the proprietary program called Affinity Designer and even though it is a very interesting application the bezier tools in there are not as sophisticated as they are in Inkscape. :)

Hi Andrew, As far as I understand, you will want to make a new feature request, in the new gitlab bug tracker, which is here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/issues. Click on the green "New Issue" button.
If you have technical or development details about how you thinkit should work.....I'm not sure where that should go now that we've moved away from Launchpad. Maybe in the wiki? Basically you would write a proposal with all the details you have, and link that page into your gitlab Issue.
Since I've answered, I might add that I've never used GIMP'svector tools. But I have the impression, from reading comments here and there, over some years, that GIMP's vector tools are fairly rudimentary, and not nearly as sophisticated as Inkscape's. Personally I'm totally happy with Inkscape's Pen/Bezier tool. But now you've made me curious, and I might have to test GIMP's tool.
I wouldn't post it in the new forum yet, because not very manypeople will see it. But you could post it for discussion in other forums. However, keep in mind that the forums are primarily user forums, and developers probably won't see it. Devs will see it from gitlab and the wiki (or wherever).
But one good thing about posting in a user forum, is that youmight learn about more Inkscape features that you weren't aware of before. Or there might be different ways to do some things.
Hhmm....well, there might be some gitlab feature that would workfor such a proposal. I'm not all that familiar with it, and typically get lost there, if I'm looking at anything except Issues. Maybe someone else can explain about that, if there's a way to do it on gitlab.
All best, brynn

I would like to post a wish list item. I'll tell you the topic. You tell me whether I can post it to the new forum (possible?) and whether I should (advisable?).
The current user interface for drawing and editing splines (Bezier) is bad.
I like the Gimp one much better, but partly because I'm used to it.
We can go into detail, but this introduces the topic. Let's improve the spline interface. How to do it?
