I agree; well said. As long as it doesn't occur with a ton of frequency I'm don't think it qualifies as a huge problem because practically every game has clipping issues - it's not laziness. I'm sure a developer would be able to comment more on the complexities of programming for geometry and the difficulty of how these objects are supposed to interact. I think Gideon Prime is out there on this one; old school games definitely had this problem also
