I've had good luck removing overcorrection by concentrating on the 70% zone
with a little nod to the mirror center. This can be controlled very nicely.
If too overcorrected, then the 90+% zone becomes troublesome as its
curvature is relatively steep, with resulting turned edge. So that's why
the generic caution to avoid overcorrection as the return to paraboloid
often results in turning the edge. However, as I say, for modest amounts of
overcorrection, this generic caution can be ignored.
