...

• Pros
  • Perfectly smooth at any resolution.
  • Can have sharp or semi-sharp features with creases and corners.
  • Can be very lightweight in memory.
  • Less displacement cracks (watertight)
• Cons
  • Different modeling techniques/skills
  • Need to tag sharp edges and vertices
  • Some topological constraints (quads or tris, no holes or non-manifold geometry)
