You catch me for language details and I'm poor in such discussion. I'm working
on specialized usage for beveling and my macro works on 2D cross section on xy
plane. It use bounding to precise area of working.

Bocouse I don't see any reason to bevel infinite shapes :-)

Bounding box is not an element of optimization. It is specification for image
function area.
