Community Verifies Atlas Outputs Can Yield Explicit 3D Meshes
Community discussion confirmed that Atlas outputs are reliable enough to distill into explicit surface meshes, with normals matching 3DGS renders closely. Keenan Crane added that explicit meshes may be a better reconstruction target than 3DGS, which mainly reproduces appearance via shading rather than precise geometry.
