Group transform is out of order. It does not transform the group but the elements. This leads to the suspicion that position and rotation are not transformation chains on object trees but attributes. That would be the wrong architecture.

I am very sorry, but please explain. Why is this a nice looking Svelte / Three / CSG app, but the basics are wrong?

Someone built something useful and you complain that it's "nice looking"? Consider reframing your feedback.

No, they are complaining that a basic functionality is not working and hinting at not having the right architecture to deliver correct results in more complex scenarios.

but this is clearly not meant to be onshape, its for kids who want to 3d print something. the 'hole' mode does not seem to subtract like I would expect.

Yes, sure. I will try to be more blunt, as I was not trying to complain about anything.

I think you have invested with agreeable results, but you missed fundamentals. Adjust course to "architecture first" and I expect a great product.

I think that's a lot better. "Please explain your wrongness" really had me scratching my head. Hopefully they can make improvements to the 3D architecture or find someone who can help.
