Comment:
I now consider the general case to be impossible. I don't have a formal
proof for that though, only experience. I had almost fixed all of the
problems with your 4D example and just to test, tried it with a 5D
example. This broke a lot of things. I kind of realized that even if I
managed to fix the 5D case, there would be still more problems in nD (for
any n > 5).
So I restricted the input to polyhedrons of three dimensions or less which
works fine and is sensible. It also fits better with the original
function definition which was to produce only triangles.
Any attempt to make a more general version of this should go in a separate
ticket/patch and have a different function name.
