If you send two non-intersecting lines into the LineOnLineOverlayer or the Intersector, the attribute "_overlaps" is set to 1 for both features exiting the Line / Intersected port, even when they do not intersect. The same value of 1 is also set if the two line actually intersect.

I suggest that non-intersecting lines get "_overlaps" set to 0 to make it easier to filter the results accordingly.

The area on area overlayer gives the same result, non-overlapping polygons get given an overlap value of 1, i.e. the polygon overlaps with itself only.

Yes, that is what you would expect.
