Why "Unsigned" Mean Curvature in CurvatureAnalysis?

@GregArden

I do not understand what a designer is looking for when looking at mean curvature. Seems to me If one is interested in anticlastic vs synclastic characteristics then Gausian curvature is the right tool and mean curvature is the wrong tool.

Discussion of what mean curvature shows and what it does not show in this thread.
