I have two options
- modelling a very accurate part, with inner details, but for this would produce a part with less standard primitives
cylinder or sphere.
- using as many as possible standard primitives to reduce the file size and have better results with tools like Povray.
But in this case, almost invisible inner detail cannot be modelised.
What should I do ?

I think the way it exists now is best.  How noticeable is it that the sphere
has no holes in it.  Even if the part is transparent, the fact the the holes
do not pass through the sphere is barely noticeable.  Plus since this part
is small in size, would this really be obvious in a model created them?
