I think the problem with the cosmetic pen is partly the need to be symmetric.
Years ago I tried cleaning up the cosmetic pen, but had to revert it because
it violated rules about symmetry.

Though perhaps the non-cosmetic painting could have the rounding adjusted so
it would look better for your example. Otherwise try offsetting the triangle
by 0.5
