simplifying bezier curves?

[anthrotype]

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, or whether you've already addressed this problem here or elsewhere. Anyway, it'd be nice if you could explore ways of optimizing bezier paths to reduce the number of curve segments while keeping the overall shape. Any insight? Thanks,

I've not explicitly done anything there yet (beyond having a look at some tracing algorithms like potrace) but it's something I'd like to look into. Unfortunately, "eventually" because I run altogether way too many side projects...

Thank you! I'll let you know if I find something interesting.
