I would have never thought to do this. It looks great. Can you explain a bit of your thought process for this?

can you explain specifically about the entwine / math behind it?

I used Entwine just to add 3 branches instead of one branch/list, thus I have first branch with all first points of arcs, a second branch with all middle points (wich will be moved) and a third branch for the third points of the arcs. It's like use Point Cylindrical component three times, but in the same module. This has nothing special, just allow me to reduce the amount of components (which could be reduced even more, but its ok).
The logic is simple, if I wanted to use the arc by three-point component, and these arches form a spiral, then I generate the three branches of points spirally.
