I can't see why it should be better. Surely the reverse holds true in
nature. In raytracing terms - overlap or not, the surfaces are nearly
coincident so the change in reflection/refraction vectors should be
negligible. And I have gotten correct results with the liquid smaller than
the glass.
Anyway, I'll try. But if this works better, I'd like to know why...
