Initially, there are three different points on the plane. Every minute, three points are chosen, for example $A$, $B$ and $C$, and a new point $D$ is generated which is symmetric to $A$ with respect to the perpendicular bisector of line segment $BC$. 24 hours later, it turns out that among all the points that were generated, there exist three collinear points. Prove that the three initial points were also collinear. (Author: V. Shmarov)

Starting from a given cyclic quadrilateral $\mathcal{Q}_0$, a sequence of quadrilaterals is constructed so that $\mathcal{Q}_{k + 1}$ is the circumscribed quadrilateral of $\mathcal{Q}_k$ for $k = 0,1,\dots$. The sequence terminates when a quadrilateral is reached that is not cyclic. (The circumscribed quadrilateral of a cylic quadrilateral $ABCD$ has sides that are tangent to the circumcircle of $ABCD$ at $A$, $B$, $C$ and $D$.) Prove that the sequence always terminates, except when $\mathcal{Q}_0$ is a square.
