The goal is to create an actual physical product. Not only can fusion 360 bend up sheet metal it can also take your design all the way through to manufacturing your part. Omit bend extent lines omitting bend extent lines will not fully remove bend lines but will give only one line per bend rather than three. Create a sketch from an offset plane or on the flat pattern.
