Yes, that is an artifact of using the verdict library to compute volume. The
cell quality filter is being used to compute a "quality" metric that is rarely
used as a primary indicator of mesh quality, so this is not really the intended
use of the filter. The cell quality of axis aligned boxes is not usually of
interest to anyone, so when writing the quality filter I did not consider that
cell type... only those types directly supported by verdict. While volume can
be obtained for other types by tetrahedralizing and summing, that does not work
for other metrics like Frobenius norm. Many element shapes do not have
well-characterized quality metrics.
