component.automaticAlignment is broken

Version 2.6.7 (1356)
component.automaticAlignment returns True while it’s not and app shows False in UI too

Can you try component.doesAttach()?

print(g)
print(
    g.layers[0].components, 
    [component.doesAttach() for component in g.layers[0].components],
)

<GSGlyph "brevecomb_tildecomb.case" with 5 layers>
((<GSComponent "brevecomb_tildecomb" x=0.0 y=230.0>), [1])

Any suggestion?

Those snippets should help to figure it out:

print(component.doesAlign())
print(component.doesAttach())
component.makeDisableAlignment()
component.makeEnableAlignment()
component.makeForceAlignment()
