Complexity for large discrete witness sets

Determine the exact computational complexity of the Discrete Witness Set Problem in weak visibility polygons when the number of input points m is larger than the number of polygon vertices n.

Background

The paper gives an optimal Θ(nlog⁡n)\Theta(n\log n) bound when the number of input points satisfies m=Θ(n)m=\Theta(n). However, every witness set in a weak visibility polygon has at most ρ+1\rho+1 members, where ρ\rho is the number of reflex vertices, so when mm is much larger than nn, most input points cannot belong to an optimum solution.

The authors explicitly leave unresolved the resulting complexity of the discrete problem in this larger-input regime.

Our lower bound for $DiscWSP$ is tight when $m = \Theta(n)$. For larger $m$ the picture changes, because a witness set has at most $\rho + 1$ members, and most of the input is therefore discarded. What is the exact complexity in that regime?
