Unfortunately I do not have as much time to develop and maintain this code as I would like, so I do appreciate people contributing to it and keeping this code alive. > Before, you said that duplicating vertices would lead to artifacts. > Can you elaborate on this?

It was off-the-cuff remark, but I can imagine issues with z-fighting for small crease angles. It increases the amount of data needed to be transferred to the GPU as well.
