Whilst promoting your excellent tool on GIS Stack Exchange I thought this tool could do with a set of useful enhancements. Not being a rust developer its outside my skillset so I thought I would just say what I'm thinking.

  1. It would useful if this tool created and populated the output with an X and Y field for the points it extracted.
  2. The PARENT_ID field is offset by 1 to the FID it was generated from, I think this needs to be corrected as it makes joining data problematic.
  3. It would be good to have a sequence field count the vertex position in the polygon ring, which resets with every PARENT_ID.
  4. Finally this is a personal preference but to me a node is a terminal vertex in a polyline. The points that make up a line or polygon are vertices, you even refer to them as vertices in your help file, so may be the tool should be renamed to extract vertices?

Just some ideas to keep you on your toes! :)
