+However, in Klipper, cornering velocities are configured by specifying
+the desired speed that a 90° corner should have (the "square corner
+velocity"), and the cornering speeds for other angles are derived from
+that.
Klipper implements look-ahead between moves that have similar extruder
flow rates. Other moves are relatively rare and implementing
