I think that the goal is different. In the case of Cura the goal is to reduce the seam, by going a little bit further it helps to reduce the scar and just the size of the nozzle is enought ( 0.4 - 0.6 mm)
I don't use Simplify but in the case of PrusaSlicer you have the same type of setting. In this case the main goal is to reduce oozing and stringing. The distance is much more longer and in PrusaSlicer they also integrate in this extansion a certain percentage of the filament retract.
On my point of view this solution is better than the Cura option. Perhaps a futur enhancement.
I have no merit ... for more details on these settings you should install the Settings Guide Plugin. You'll find a lot of answers to your questions there Including one of your previous posts. on the top layers
Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.
S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
(Sorry, was out of office when this released)
This update is for...
All UltiMaker S series
New features
Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
