  It seems to be a problem of scale. If you multiply everything by 100,
the shape renders just ok. However, with such small values as those
there's a quite odd think happening there.
  What makes this odd is that the problem does not happen with the
quartic. If you render the quartic alone with no intersection nor
bounded_by, it renders just fine even at that scale. However, both
the intersection with the cylinder and the bounding by the cone
gives odd results at those scales. I have no idea why.
