Of course - splines are nurbs. I should have known. 
I'll have to read more - biggest question is why don't they call them "curves"? I'd guess it's because they are dots and not connected as far as LibreCAD knows.
Did I already warn you that this was my first CAD project? Clueless. Sometimes feel like I left the house without my pants. But I just go back and put them on. CAD has been a huge help, I'm glad I tackled it.
As to the original problem, LibreCAD can't use a nurb (!) as a limiter or trim and they basically are a stick in the mud. I changed my hatch so I don't mistake it for a line again, the ends are still square.
A screw thread is out of the picture too. No zig-zag lines that I have found yet.
Looks like multiple types of dashed lines will have to do. Now I have to lookup what a "block" is...
And thanks again for this:

I hope those links are correct.
