It simplifies the drawing of beautiful 1.5 +curves. 1.6 + 1.7 +Using bézier splines an artist can easily draw curves with the same slope on 1.8 +either side of an on-curve point. Spiros, on the other hand, are based on 1.9 +clothoid splines which make it easy to maintain constant curvature as well as 1.10 +constant slope.
