Sure, but the point of what you quoted wasn’t to say that other games don’t have that piece, it’s that if this building system is “incomplete and wonky”, you should try Fallout or No Man’s Sky or Valheim.
Which would require implementing that smart system. So now on top of adding a ton of new pieces, they would also have to add a whole new system so that the players don’t have to deal with the UI nightmare.
Does that sound like something Funcom would do? 
There are some. I wish there were more. And I wish even more fervently that they weren’t so fuсking frustrating to use. Placing a rounded Turanian wall is a nightmare.
There are tutorials for that. But even with those tutorials, you won’t be able to build something that is perfectly straight and only has curves where you want it. 
There is a way forward for the right-angle triangle, though. Someone mentioned earlier in the discussion that one of Multigun’s mods solves this by creating “spacer” pieces.
So I guess Funcom could add the right-angle triangle and spacer pieces in some future BP or BLB content, for a selected style, like they did with Turanian curved pieces or Stormglass L-shaped stairs.
