No, in nearly all cases the midpoint is the point on the curve furthest
from the straight line when both control points are on the same side. It
can happen, though. I'm now working on a fix depending on finding how
far the furthest control point is from the straight line. No point on
the curve can be further from the straight line than both control points.

Wouldn't the midpoint also fail to be the furthest point from the line
whenever the two off-curve control points are on the same side of the
midpoint?
