Here's a 3D-printed version of the star model:
The star-shaped hole is missing. This is most likely related to validation errors of the exported 3MF file:
This is not surprising, as the kernel doesn't really have any concept of surface orientation. What wasn't clear so far, is that this affects the validity of exported 3MF files.
#339 is related, as both bugs have the same root cause. Another related (and now closed) issue is #173.
We should prevent such issues outright, by adding a 3MF validation step to the CI build (see #54).
Thanks to @dcompoze for reporting this on Matrix!
