If you use the same 'count' value, this is natural, decreasing error_bound
nearly always requires higher count values (nearest_count could help in
some cases too).

It also seems obvious to me that corners are preferred places for
persistent artefacts. 

One thing that often bothers me a bit are certain structures on outside
corners like in:
