Lightroom Classic: Spot Removal tool with shift held down
In previous versions "I thought" when I would Shift + click after the second Shift + click it would just patch the distance from the previous click, not all the way back to the beginning? PS acts like I thought LR did, but maybe I'm wrong about LR? In any event, it should act that way as I am wanting to remove sections at a time, not the entire length at once. Otherwise, it samples areas that shouldn't be sampled and ruins the patching.

My experience is this-
[Click] once to "Start" a new Brush stroke at point A
Relocate mouse cursor [SHIFT+Click] to brush a straight 'line' from point A ending at point B,
Relocate mouse cursor [SHIFT+Click] a second time to brush a 'line' from point B ending at point C,
etc.
A single [Click] at a 'new' point D will start a new location for continuing the Brush stroke area with the current Brush setting.
This screen-clip is all the 'one' brush.
.
(For another Brush setting- Press [K] twice. Closes then re-opens the Brush.)

Your explanation makes sense but, I cannot recreate the result you are seeing. I have tried every combination of 'held' keys (Shift+Ctrl, Shift+Alt, etc) and nothing will reproduce your experience (C to A). So do you end up seeing a triangle A>B>CtoA ? So the [Shift+Click] at point C draws two lines (B>C and C>A)?
Have you tried resetting the Preferences, or even re-installing Lightroom?
