You write there that the cutting is done sequentially from large to
small. Seeing as how the polygon complexity is one major factor in the
cutting process, wouldn't it make sense to use more smaller, more
precise polygons to cut out the small stuff first with "better" polygons
and then assembling the larger parts from that?
Or would the complexity of the necessary housekeeping outweigh the use
of more accurate border polys?
