A variation on this is an horizontal rectangle, 1 unit wide and 1.73 deep, and a vertical rectangle in the YZ plane 1 unit high and 1.73 wide. Or the same rotated 90 degrees. Looking from above you see an hexagon. This somewhat improves the rE for horizontal directions (not much), at the expense of all others. Anything outside the +/- 30 degrees elevation region will become very fuzzy. I didn't yet look into it in detail, but very probably a cube with the top square rotated by 45 degrees will have a similar effect.
