Generally, I wouldn’t even say that a part with T-junctions needs a “(Needs Work)” tag. But I will encourage part authors to avoid T-junctions. It is worth having a few more polygons to avoid the rendering artifacts.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Any chance a T-junctions FAQ could be created on the parts tracker reference page, and the above could make it into a policy statement in the parts review FAQ? Most of my original post here could be used as the FAQ, but the tone is perhaps too negative if we’re saying that they’re OK to have, but discouraged.
