This is been keeping me up every night for the past few years:
Why can’t EdgeSrf work with a single closed curve?

Hello - that is simply not what it is designed to do - it combines the structures from opposite pairs of input curves. If you have a single closed curve, PlanarSrf
or Patch
are your options. Surfaces are inherently four-sided, so a pair of curves or four curves is reasonable input for an EdgeSrf
, which does no trimming. Three curves also works ok in some cases, odd in others. The nice thing about EdgeSrf is that given good clean input, it makes a very simple, clean surface.

You can always Divide/Split the single curve into two, three or four curves and then use EdgeSrf.
The divide part has always left me puzzled why.
