Pencil Tool Fidelity setting is either buggy, or something weird is going on.
With Pencil Tool
The most accurate setting (1) produces 44 points in my example.
The next setting (2) produces 10 points.
The following setting (3) produces 17 points.
Settings 2 and 3 are in the wrong order.
I wondered why there was such a huge accuracy gap between settings 1 and 2, and then I noticed this.
I’ve attached a sample .ai file.

Here, I test it, tracing this zig-zag line by hand (with a mouse, don't judge!)
From to to bottom the fidelity rises... and the step 2 feels VERY smooth, almost like the last one. -
For months, I wondered why there was such a big gap between 1 and 2.
I just never thought to check setting 3 :) -
Indeed, the almost-accurate setting (2) feels like too smooth compared to the middle one (3). All others I try feels adequate...
Thank for the report!
