I think I'll stick to my guns. First, it isn't my section. In fact I
don't know what the section in the first post actually is. Hence the
little himily on symmetry.
Second, I've been using ANSYS for 30 years. I've found a few bugs and
it sure hasn't kept me from making mistakes but violate first
principles? Never.
