Perhaps I'm confused.  Of course we have to draw the lines, that's
what schematic capture is.  I'm not talking about redrawing the
schematic, just assigning pin numbers to pins.  Why would that change
the geometry of the schematic?

If pin U13-A has been assigned number "3" why should that cause any
lines to change?

Are we talking about pcb here?
