I agree completely. I would also add that, while Wolfram documentation says "The Wolfram Language supports import and export of 3D geometry from all standard formatswith its symbolic representation of 3D objects allowing immediate faithful interchange," it does not support import/export of IGES, STEP, or SAT. Which are THE standard formats for 3D geometry in engineering and applied physics, covering the vast majority of applications. And every attempt I've made to use the STL export for real work has resulted in disappointment.
