... delivering an astounding range of novel solutions to Maths problems indefinitely but I think it more likely that it will exhaust the set of things that it is exceedingly suited to and prove less effective at moving beyond that.

![Another snippet of code, it reads:
// Draws the stroke so far, ending at the cursor (if it's over the view)
public void Draw(Control overlay, Vector2? cursor)
{
var view = _view.View;
var drawn = _placed.Select(view.ToScreen).ToList();
if (cursor is { } at && (drawn.Count == 0 || drawn[^1].DistanceTo(at) >= SamePointPixels))
drawn.Add(at);
if (drawn.Count >= 2) {
var points = StrokeShape.WithEndHandles(drawn.ConvertAll(p => new StrokePoint(p, 0.0f)));
var line = new List<Vector2>();
for (int segment = 1; segment <= points.Count - 3; ++segment) {
for (int i = segment == 1 ? 0 : 1; i <= PreviewSteps; ++i)
line.Add(StrokeShape.Position(points, segment, i / (float)PreviewSteps));
}
var colour = PaintPalette.Colours.GetValueOrDefault(_view.Choice.Colour, EditorView.HandleColour) with { A = 0.6f };
float width = Mathf.Max(1.0f, _view.BrushScale(_view.Choice.Brush) * view.Side);
overlay.DrawPolyline([.. line], colour, width, true);
overlay.DrawPolyline([.. line], EditorView.HandleColour, 1.0f, true);
}
foreach (var point in _placed)
overlay.DrawCircle(view.ToScreen(point), PointRadius, EditorView.HandleColour, true, -1.0f, true);
