  Actually it does. The problem is that rays must hit the HF if you want
them to compute the media. Rays which miss the HF by going completely under
it never hit the HF and thus media is never computer for them.

  In the more general level, this is the basic problem with open surfaces.
A HF is an open surface and thus these types of artifacts are to be expected,
as with any open surface. Only closed surfaces behave "correctly".
