No tangency continuity at 7 surface meeting point

I converted a pretty “worst case scenario” file that I found on a different forum:

It faired pretty well, but in this one particular area, I couldn’t even get tangency:

Hi @eobet,

Can you post your 3dm file (or just the problematic part of it) and the Rhino 7 version you are using? @chuck has been working on improving surface tangency in ToNurbs (https://mcneel.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/issue/RH-55492), maybe he can help you here.

Well, as I said, I found the file in the linked thread. Here’s the mesh I imported into Rhino, in case you don’t have Blender installed:

Thanks, I’d looked through the thread you linked but did not realize we were looking at a feather of the swan. I still can’t quite find which one you are looking at, so I selected one that’s close enough and isolated it in the attached 3dm file. Red faces here:

Turning on G2 continuity in ToNurbs yields better results, but at the expense of a “wavy” surface around the exceptional node:

I’ve logged the issue here.
