Why do you ask?

I want to clean up the file, and take advantage of all these new cone primitives
that didn't exist when I first encoded this part.  But I need an "orange slice"
(as I think of it) to join each pair of cone segments to be used for the hook
proper.  :)

(...) Strictly speaking, (assuming I understand you correctly) you can't do this. As you 'squish' the primitive, the angle will change slightly, but it's kinda like the tangent angle is the last to change - by the time you switch it significantly (...)
