Did this die?

Looks like it.
Maybe it was too ambitious. Should I bother trying a more "primitive" starting shape?

The point of this of course is to see how designers "regularize" shapes.

Maybe people didn't respond because they didn't think anything useful could be determined by the exercise, or because they thought you had pre-determined that designers would regularise the shape. I also suspect that most designers associate fixing something or making something correct relative to a brief, so presenting them with a shape without any context of what it is for isn't likely to garner a response. The trick would be to come up with a context that would not overly determine how the designer would respond, but that seems to me very difficult.

Also, an EPS outline would be easier to work with than a bitmap image.

Sure it could turn out to be a pointless waste, but let's have some faith in experimentation, come on. And although I doubt much could be "determined", it might very well get quite interesting, no?
