  No. Marching cubes is much simpler, but produces significantly poorer
results (does not take into account the curvature of the surface in order
to dynamically produce more triangles in high-curvature areas, which means
that it often misses smaller details, and it often produces extremely thin
triangles which may cause problems).

  The marching cubes algorithm also has a negative fame because some idiot
patented it on the US. (The patent might be expired by now.)
