The spreadsheet is "unrolling" a hexagon shape, which has sharp
corners.  This might have been necessary (and you are right --
unrealizable) for the inside boring task, but is unnecessarily
"pointy" in this case.

What you really need to "unroll" is the offset path, a tool radius
outward from the hexagon.  The offset path will have arcs around the
original hexagon's corners.  This eliminates the sharp corners on
the unrolled path.

(Our cutter comp generates these kinds of nice offset paths, but of
course it doesn't know about XC-space.)
