Possible bug: using strokes, "Expand Outline" has different results than Offset Curve "make stroke"

When I right click a path using strokes with a height and width set, and select “Expand Outline” from the context menu, no on-curve points are retained, everything becomes an off-curve point. Whereas selecting “make stroke” in the Offset Curve filter will correctly maintain these points

Can you post some screenshots?

points

Do you mean corner/smooth points rather than on/off-curve points?

yes, I do - thank you for the correction
