I call anything like that triangles or polygons, my fault.
I suppose it might be quite different; but still, wouldn't a near zero vector (in at
least 2 axes, maybe only if 3 are) in the patch statement cause POV to think it's zero
instead?  And then maybe nothing there far as surface goes?
I can imagine that it should have a flat plane-like area but with these things only
the
mathematic elite of the POV-Ray users probably know or have any idea.
