gollark: `\{\{([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)(.+?)\}\}` is matching the wrong things and I have no idea why.
gollark: BEE regular expressions.
gollark: I never actually ended up having to reflect 2D lines in 2D lines.
gollark: Well, the way I know to do this in 3D space (with a plane, though) would be to compute the intersection of the line and plane, and then to reflect some arbitrary point on the line in the plane, and make a line through those two points.
gollark: This is EMPIRICAL maths.
