Improving kerf adjustment on complex shapes

This is an inkscape-specific thing, but may apply elsewhere. Kerf adjustment is well-trod territory at this point, but I recently decided to see if there was anything to improve performance. The issue: when doing a “stroke-to-path” action on an irregular shape, you can sometimes see deformation of the resulting paths. The solution: add more nodes. The software is making a best-guess estimate, which you can improve with extra nodes. Illustrated: On the left, the original shape. On the righ…

In this case though @techquest89 told me that the original art had lots of nodes.
