lowers, and (from the linked paper) also raises!

> Note that our degree reduction is lossless, in the sense that the original cubic curve can be perfectly reconstructed from the quadratic curves we generate, though the cubic and quadratic curves have slightly different shapes

Good point, that's worth emphasizing in the post – I added a section about it with reference to the paper (& to your comment).
