It can be one, the other, or both.

I was replying to a reference about a specific example in the blog post.

In that example, I see wobbly features due to rendering alongside the edges that make it look like the polygon is going to have dozens of nodes. Then, there is an over-simplification of the polygon around the top-right corner (which I didn't consider an error based on my criteria from reviewing manually created pools).

> And the reviewer is bad for approving anything at all?

I didn't say that. I was trying to assert that the UI/X can be improved to better show what will be uploaded.

You are right. I was manually reviewing the profile created for the demo every day, but I didn't realize the impact/reach until I saw the first comments here. As soon as I read the first comment, I shut down the demo.

As I said in other comments, I will make alternative changes to the demo.

Thanks for the suggestion, I don't know why I didn't thought about that earlier.
