the problem with your comparison is a wrong way to export from FreeCAD...
if you use kicad in wrong way you could also say kicad is useless for
creating pcbs ...
if you share a STEP model you have made, or just with public license I
will make a comparison with that...
I have many STEP models for a real comparison, I did MCAD libraries for
MCAD collaboration with STEP and VRML models for kicad and they will not
give any warnings, or bad lighting model for VRML .... but that would be
on my point of view :)
I would show you what can be done with FreeCAD and kicad StepUP on your
side :)

Unfortunately I can't share the STEP file since it is someone else's
proprietary data. But if you have a STEP assembly which we can all use
for a comparison of the different translators then we can do a test.

Hi folks,
I'd just like to share a comparison of the OCE VRML export
from my
visualization experiments vs the FreeCAD VRML exporter.
FreeCAD: file size ~28MB, >800 warnings about defects in the model,
bad lighting model for VRML:

Custom OCE export (via the scenegraph library from kicad 3D work):
~14MB, no warnings, default lighting as per VRML2 specification.

Original STEP file size: ~15MB
