Having noticed the other change to the plugin between v0.7 and v0.8 is from
SHORT_ARC = 10 # pixels
to
SHORT_ARC = 5 # pixels

I changed that back and the spike went.  However that may just be a one off for your example, I have no idea what the wider implications of such a change are.  Anyway that's a difficult case

I had some other difficult case that made me to do that change. I don't remember exactly. The meaning of SHORT_ARC is that arcs below it are done with some simple solution instead of the rickety approximation algorithm with its subdivisions to ever shorter arcs.

I think that how the plugin manages those difficult cases is just  a question of luck. The program should be made better, but now it remains as it is.
