Can anyone suggest why the behavior is different in each of the
following:

This doesn't work:

In[95]:= v = {{{1, 0}, {0, 1}}, {{-1, 0}, {0, -1}}};
Normal[GraphicsComplex[v, Line[{1, 2}]]]

Out[96]= GraphicsComplex[{{{1, 0}, {0, 1}}, {{-1, 0}, {0, -1}}},
 Line[{1, 2}]]

This does work:

In[99]:= v = {{1, 0}, {0, 1}, {-1, 0}, {0, -1}};
Normal[GraphicsComplex[v, Line[{1, 2, 3, 4}]]]

Out[100]= {Line[{{1, 0}, {0, 1}, {-1, 0}, {0, -1}}]}
