The explode function preference 'Spline Segments' has no influence on the created number of polyline segments any more.

Attached is a file with an example.
The same spline exploded with setting 2-4-8 & 128 segments.
Result for the indicated spline is 59 and constant.

The spline segments in preferences only have an effect when exploding to line segments (fixed number of line segments per spline segment).

When exploding to arc segments, the tolerance is used instead. As many arcs as necessary are created to meet the given tolerance.
