This drawing is less demanding of plotting precision than an earlier, similar version I have posted. This version fully draws each local region of the egg before moving on to the next region. While this makes the plotting time a bit slower (but not by much), it reduces the amount of plotting precision needed. (The prior version of this drawing was optimized for speed but made the egg go through many full back and forth revolutions.)

If you still have plotting precision issues, you can slightly stretch the drawing horizontally by, say, 5 pixels. (If that's not enough, then iterate by stretching again.) Just select layer "2 - black", select all in layer, and then use Object > Transform. In the Transform sub-window, use the "Scale" tab and set the units to "px" (pixels). You may see that the initial width isn't exactly 3200 pixels: that's because (1) the drawing is wider than 3200 pixels as it wraps around the egg, and (2) Inkscape takes into account the stroke width of the line
