When it's ready new param will look like this
./cq-cli --codec stl --infile /input/path/script.py --outfile /output/path/newfile.stl --outputopts "deflection:0.3;angularDeflection:0.3;"

Examples of file sizes at different deflection/angularDeflection settings when generating the braille signs on CadHub.

0.1 - 40 MB
0.2 - 11 MB
0.3 - 5.3 MB

Using the highest quality for viewing on CadHub slows things down needlessly. The higher quality settings can be used when downloading the STL. I'm not sure how that will effect the file caching in S3 though since there will be two different STL files for the same script hash now. Unless a Download just always triggers a render/export at the highest quality at runtime and ignores the cached file.
