Hey,

An update: Replacing my tessellation code with the GLU tessellator solves all
stability issues.
However, as the GLU tessellator naively build triangle fans after
decomposition, it’s far from being delaunay, and it tends to introduce zero
triangles (collinear vertices), which do not pass CGAL’s Polyhedron_3
preconditions.

Now, If I could just bypass Polyhedron_3 altogether. Does anyone happen to
have an example of how to create a Nef polyhedron directly from e.g. OFF
without going through a Polyhedron_3 ?
