Recently as we add lots of fonts to Font Bros, we notice many novice font designers have serious point issues including open paths and errant nodes. I generally direct them to use the Threshold Pen tool from Robofab which does a serviceable job but I'm not sure that's the very best option or recipe for this otherwise delicate work . . .
Any suggestions all?

Note that FontLab prefs allow you to decide which of FontAudit's 12 tests you wish to apply. It's not all or nothing.
I made an oblique version of my font that I'm designing and I get a lot of : "Extrenum point: we recommande placing a node at this extrenum point". Do I have to trust FL about this Audit ? is it a real issue ?

Can somebody smart tell me if I've got this right, half-right, or wrong?
Glyphs has the helpful ability to just add orthogonal extreme points at appropriate locations if you shift-click on a curve with the pen tool.
