// points are always on a single side of the baseline, and the midpoint of the curve at t=0.5 is roughly in the centre
// of the polygon defined by the curve coordinates) and then point-scale each sub-curve with respect to its scaling
// origin (which is the intersection of the point normals at the start and end points).
// A good way to do this reduction is to first find the curve's extreme points, and use these as initial splitting points.
// After this initial split, we can check each individual segment to see if it's "safe enough" based on where the
// center of the curve is.If the on-curve point for t = 0.5 is too far off from the center, we simply split the
// segment down the middle. Generally this is more than enough to end up with safe segments.
