   this poster was much more work than it should have been, swollen to a 69MB SVG file, inkscape slowing to a crawl on an i9 and crashing almost each time after saving (luckily after, so i could resume after each crash)

     @mntmn seems strange that just a bunch of straight lines should be more than 69,000,000 bytes...

     @mntmn I'd be happy to have a go at cleaning up the file, if you'd like? I have lots of experience trimming bloated SVGs working for a large-format design and printing company.

     @alexisspacegirl oh interesting, what was your strategy?

     @mntmn There's probably quite a bit more optimization you could squeeze out of it, but it's at least under 6MB and doesn't make my laptop cry anymore
