What's causing this distortion?

Beginner CNCer here (shapeoko pro XXL) but long time woodworker. I'm using vcarve pro, exporting toolpaths to carbide motion ATC, using very conservative feeds and speeds. This is a simple v-carve path of a text with single line font.

What checks and tests can I run to narrow down the cause?

I’m a semi-beginner to woodworking. I’m building a bench from 8/4 walnut and thinking of doing a dato joint to connect the upright sides/legs. I was planning on dato-ing out about half the material (1”) and glueing. Should I be adding something else to add strength as I’m concerned about hinging or sway and loosening up over time.
