Well even outside the realm of ICE, moving the model from zero has
always been frowned upon.
When dealing with objects with simulations on them that are under the
model, the model's matrix if not at world zero can do funky things and
have you pulling out hair and punching babies. Not that I've ever
punched a baby...

That’s really disappointing to hear.
I’ve got a large set of previously built model assets I want to use. I
could just convert them to old school and parent their structure with
a null as a opposed to a model, but that seems a real waste. It also
seems contradictory to where ICE was headed.
What’s the point of expanding ICE beyond particles or point clouds if
it’s not recommended to use it on model assets?

I would not recommend using ICE on models, to be honest - have a null
underneath it and apply it to that instead. In my (kinda) humble
opinion; if a model is anywhere but world zero I disprove. :)

Is there a standard procedure for how to use ICE with Models?
Is it not recommended to apply ICE to Models then?

That may return the scene root if the model is under the scene root
though.
