Bounded_by is no shortcut for proper intersection.

The Lowermouth is so far inside a box of <-0.800,-1.000,-2.150 >,
<0.800,0.600,0.200>

So your bounded_by box <-3,-0.3, -3>,<3,-3,3> is overlapping (hence
bogus). Garbage in... garbage out.

#declare fom=min_extent(Lowermouth1);
#declare fom2=max_extent(Lowermouth1);
#debug "Hello\n"
#debug concat(vstr(3,fom,",",0,3),"\n")
#debug concat(vstr(3,fom2,",",0,3),"\n")
#debug "World\n"
