I think our definitions of 'perfect' differ significantly, because that anti-aliasing looks just terrible to me.

[NOTE: i only say that as you presented the above image as a demonstration of 'perfect anti-aliasing' - everything else looks great!]

Are you looking at the outer border of the black stroke? That's what I was referring to. Yes, the interior of the stroke is screwed up. I have to wade through more research papers.

Impressive!
