How are sharply curved paths connected by corner points?

Sharply curved paths are connected by corner points. When you move a direction line on a smooth point, the curved segments on both sides of the point are adjusted simultaneously. By comparison, when you move a direction line on a corner point, only the curve on the same side of the point as the direction line is adjusted.

What kind of path is a compound path?
