Making planar hexagons is quite different from making planar quads. With quads, provided they are reasonably close to the surface curvature directions, it is usually possible to make them planar without changing the shape too much. With hexagons though, when you have regions of negative curvature (which your shape does around the funnels, and between the domes), it is geometrically impossible to make all the hexagons both planar and convex. Some of them have to become ‘bowtie’ shaped. If you …
