We used this extensively when I worked in this space (2010 - 2014). My favorite addition was using https://github.com/topojson/topojson to add arcs. That cut down on quite a bit of points to represent curves.

Dang, fun memories of when I was first getting in to geo/data stuff and doing a lot of web mapping stuff with D3, Leaflet and friends. Seems as tools like Vector tiles/PMTiles have supplanted topojson for a lot of visualization oriented use cases.
