Q: Problems with adding a tracker to a warper shape

In order for me to utilize this warper I needed to stabilize this image. I worked on the stabilized image for some time but then realized that adding a stabilize and then a match considerably blurs the image, which is unacceptable. So, in order to work with the accuracy of a stabilized image without having to worry about the stabilization blur, I have been baking the tracker I made from the stabilize node to my warper shapes and using the stabilize node just as a reference. I haven't had any problems except for one. For some reason whenever I attach the tracker to the shapes in this one node the warp isn't quite the same. Even comparing the warp with the baked tracker side-by-side with the original warp over the stabilized image both create different warping results despite the fact that the the shapes are in the same exact place with the same exact settings.

I personally don't want to have to completely redo that entire warper node if I can fix this issue and proceed with just slapping a tracker on the shapes.

Anyone have an idea why the tracker could possibly be interfering with my warp, and how I could fix that?
