Unconstrained derive sketches, feature or another very old unresolved bug?

I found this post from 2019 labeling this occurrence as a bug:
I have a source project (project A) that has some sketches that I would like to reference to in another project (project B). The sketches are completely constrained in the source project, but completely blue after being derived into Project B.
I can't tell if this is a bug or a feature though. Since the source sketches do reference some outside geometry if I remember correctly. I would think a better solution than unconstraining the entire sketch would be to simply add a lock constraint in the derived sketch to any projected lines, etc. that lost their reference. I could certainly be wrong.
I haven't investigated the sketches too in-depth as I have become accustomed to coming here first rather than divesting hours into troubleshooting only to find out its an 8 year old bug that Autodesk still hasn't fixed. The only explanation is the few projections I did have caused the entire sketch to turn blue. I will look into this.
I guess my question is, is this a known bug? Has this been fixed? Or how does this feature work for everyone else, is this normal?
