Some say you can bend a right angle in the middle of the tube

Bend it a bit more than you need, then "unbend" it. Springs are nice
for large swept bends that are just about visible, e.g. under basins.

Yup - fine for that. But before I had a bender I tried doing the sort of
tight bend you get with those, and couldn't retrieve the spring.
