Why is this part of Norway not part of Sweden?

The border between Sweden and Norway is largely influenced by geographical elements (streams, lakes etc.) as well as cultural/historical ones. But I can't figure out what happened here. The lines seem unnatural compared to the rest of the national border. Can someone explain this?

Covered on Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lierne_Municipality#History

>Lierne Municipality was the largest obstacle in the negotiations before the Stromstad Treaty of 1751 in which the border was defined in detail. Sweden wanted it based on its location on the eastern side of the drainage divide, although Norway got it based on its historic connection to the Snaasen prestegjeld in Norway. As compensation Norway gave up its demand for the Idre and Särna parishes which were under Swedish control since 1644. This is why there is a large curve in the national border.
