2 years ago I think such a change is very useful, along with other tweaks to make the k-factor labels print more reliably (better retraction and zhop behaviours, separate speed perhaps).
Rather than just aid the otherwise tedious removal of the k-factor label numbers and dots. I believe being able to remove the entire printed output as a single piece and analyse off the bed is also a major advantage. I have raised a new feature request with that broader scope (#23495)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is not technically a firmware request as it is a request for the linear advance calibration pattern generator(https://marlinfw.org/tools/lin_advance/k-factor.html)
The mandatory praise: I am a huge fan of this tool, whoever designed it needs to be immortalized in a statue or a song.
The "problem": Removing all the numbers from my bed is a massive chore, and I believe that a small feature added could make the removal much easier.
Are you looking for hardware support?
Nothing hardware specific
Describe the feature you want
My feature request/proposed solution: I would like an option to add a line to both sides of the numbering, like the anchor frames for the lines themselves, to connect all the numbers.
It would also be worth considering making said option also do a line through the bottom of the numbers to connect all the numbers in one piece. I realize this would make the legibility of the numers a bit less clear, but the convenience of removal afterwards would more than make up for that
Additional context
Removing the numbers when testing 0-0.5 in two prints with 0.01 steps gets real tedious and they get everywhere. I'm pretty sure I just found one in my ear from 6 moths ago. I definitely just found one depressed into my magnetic mat.
