yes, but I’m saying that if we have the opportunity to define a “nlayer” parameter as for “Extrude” and “Revolved”, then we can have a better control on the discretization of each sub-volume prior to merge nodes i.e. gmsh “coherence” (see difficulties in [this post](https://prepomax.discourse.group/t/meshing-methodology/2863) )
