Yes, this one is a bug. The algorithm is causing a
completely different shape for the slur at one viewing
size than another. To give you some idea, the center
of a slur on a normal printout could be more than an
inch away from where you see it on screen (relative to
nearby objects). It's not a subtle difference on the
order of a few pixels. It's as if a 2 year old drew
that particular slur by hand - but it looks fine in
Finale at some resolutions, so you aren't aware of the
problem until printout. It's rare, and I never hear
about it on the MakeMusic forum any longer, but the
fact it exists does mean you have to watch out for it
or do something to prevent it.

These slurs are indeed rare, but the bug also includes slurs which have their tips crash into the staff lines. I realize that many people don't even notice, but I do, and it bothers me. It is definitely a bug.
