Could the edge not have near zero width, yet not be a straight edge? That is, the edge comes together very closely (near zero width) yet it is a ragged edge that comes together with near zero width? Just thinking aloud; not arguing at all

Glen, can you expand on your last post a little? What happens if you 'take the edge too far? Will it become fragile and break?
