I wonder if there is some cultural preference for this. Looking at the map example, I find the cubic smoothing way “calmer”. The exponential one feels a bit hectic and I am wondering if it’s an American thing. It’s got a “wheez” quality that is annoying to me, but that reminds me of hyper cartoons like powerpuff girls. It’s still all very subtle…
