I sometimes have the issue that constraint symbols and their numbers, especially two-digit numbers, can obscure the points they are attached to. The solution currently is to find the constraint in the constraint list and hide it.
Maybe it would be a good idea to refine rendering the constraint symbols? A bit more of a distance could be nice.
Or the constraints could move a little out of the way when the cursor comes close to the point.

Re: Sketcher constraints sometimes prevent selecting points
Faster than hiding the constraint is to zoom in select and zoom out. Especially the mode "Zoom at cursor" helps.

Re: Sketcher constraints sometimes prevent selecting points
I normally only soom with the mousewheel, and the geometry positions do scale, but the Constraint symbols and numbers don't. So I can zoom in all I want, the problem persists. I may have to provide a screenshot next time I run into this.
