As conceived and written, Bevel was intended only to work on cases where faces are present. For edge bevel, each beveled edge needs to have exactly two adjacent faces. For vertex bevel, initially it was only going to do vertices completely surrounded by faces, but at some point I made it work for outside corner vertices (but still with a face inside). The case in your example is one where there is no face at all. I need to either disable this case or write some special purpose code. Disabling would be easier. Another example: make a grid, delete faces only, and then try to do vertex bevel on any vertex.

See here. It would be nice if you could do something like this both on vertex and curves. It would make making pipes so much easier instead of trying various workarounds.

Yes, thanks for that. I can see the utility.
