I am just curious : does some of you use B-splines to draw italics ? And which type drawing program propose it as a step in drawing ?
I just ask it because at the moment I am stunned by the ease they offer to draw the more organic shapes suited to italics.
Here is an example of what they can do in Inkscape, which remains my main drawing program. I don't show it to ask critics on this shape which is a very early and rough step, but to illustrate this interesting technique.

It feels very intuitive and makes nice smooth curves easily. Why don't we have this in font drawing apps?
