There's a minor issue with ellipse when you repeat the command. I click on the icon the first time, which displays center draw method, but the when I repeat the command with enter key it switches to axis end. I've only tested this with 2021.
Just a minor bug.

Hi,
The default Ellipse command is by Specify axis , if you start the command with Center option and finish it , when you repeat the command it will get back for default .

I agree, it's not a bug, it's just that the command doesn't save option choices. That's true of a lot of commands -- for instance, DIVIDE doesn't remember how many divisions you last asked for, nor whether you last used the Block option, nor if you did, what Block name you used.
You can certainly have an Ellipse-by-Center command that builds in that Center option for you:
(defun C:EC () (command "_.ellipse" "_c"))
And if you want it again right after, Enter will recall the custom command, not the native Ellipse command.
[I usually spell out option words, rather than use only abbreviations, because of the possibility that options will change and there might some day be more than one starting with C. But if "_center" is spelled out here, it is taken as an Object-Snap call.]
