Welcome to these Forums!
What do you mean by "nodes"?
If you mean Point entities [the things that the "node" object-snap mode snaps to], those can be eliminated easily by selecting them all with QSELECT, and ERASE-ing/Deleting them. That would not interfere at all with the "integrity" of other drawing entities.
If you mean something like a high density of vertices along a Polyline, that you want to reduce the number of, there are routines that can do that, such as PLDiet.lsp with its PLD command, available here. Or in new-enough versions of AutoCAD, you could Explode the Polylines and then use Join to re-connect them, in which there is an option to consolidate any collinear Lines into single Polyline line segments [or single Lines] -- PLD does that automatically to any series of vertices in a Polyline that are collinear.
If you mean something like kinks or bends in a Polyline with a lot of short line segments that you want smoothed out into curvature for "a smoother cut path," try PEDIT on it, and the Fit or Spline option.
Or do you mean something else?
