I can select a vertex if only two wires(lines) meet. But if another line also intersects there is no way to select it:

That's not relevant here.

@NewJoker how did you select it, I have even zoomed in and it won't highlight for selection.
Snap mode doesn't apply because I'm selecting certain points or vertices to be used in a python program. I will try again.

I have no problem selecting the top left vertex either. Maybe try to increase the Point Size?
Note that when you select the top left vertex you will select a vertex of the Wire object, and not of the Line object, because the Wire was created first.

Not there. You have to go to Edit --> Preferences.
