    @Schrödinger'scat The bbox library is written anonymously, and in any case people can use open-source code however they wish Commented Feb 21, 2020 at 17:11
  • @JosephWright This is true but "The bbox library makes it possible to disregard control points in the calculation" is a misleading statement. This is not an appropriate description of what the library does. The library establishes the correct bounding box, which is not achieved by (just) disregarding the control points.

    @Schrödinger'scat I updated my answer, The bbox library allows you to calculate the smallest bounding box that contains the figure Commented Feb 21, 2020 at 17:40
  • I feel the very least you could do is to acknowledge in the answer that you got told by others that the answer was not entirely correct. The cleaner way IMHO would be to remove the post altogether, an earlier answer already pointed out that the bbox library can be used here. Commented Feb 21, 2020 at 17:42
