With (L, ρ, τ) = (1, 0.04, π) fixed, the four curve families all have the same total normal-band area excluding end caps (2ρL=0.08), so the comparison instead becomes the extra support tension that equal-area, differently-shaped curves impose on a common convex container. The ranking by maximum curvature is not the ranking by common-container pressure.
Relationship to other packages, stated as far as possible in the document's own words, not my interpretation. This case's theoretical foundation is in From the Original Kakeya Needle to Moser's Worm.
“The contact-saturated spiral reaches max κ≈25, but accounts for only about 1.46% of the active directions. The finite-width curvature stratum has lower maximum curvature, yet dominates more than half the directions…the finite-width distribution of curvature and the global support configuration matter more than a single maximum curvature.” — from Section 6, “First Major Finding,” of this package's main document.
