🧵 specifically in #sdfCAD: infinite shapes [looking at you #OpenSCAD where one needs to add a +EPSILON for every difference/intersection to not weird out the preview], smooth versions of all operations (auto-fillets!), modulating the width of any shape into any direction with math, etc.), but as awesome as code is, code-CAD fails *spectacularly* for the common task of re-modelling an existing object from a picture if it's more than just a blocky shape. Sure, SVG-import is a thing 🧵
