>From the package's README:

	Points are untouched.
	Lines and polygons are simplified.

All polygon's rings are threated as lines.
There is no special handling of polygons beyond the policy in use
when getting a 2 or 3 points output. Lines are kept, while polygons
are removed from set (as of version 2).
