Hmmm, this is exactly the opposite of what I would expect, since T-Splines allows more patches in areas of greater detail. I had visions of T-Splines taking a 100Mb mesh file and getting it down to 50Mb or less, while at the same time being resolution independent.

I had hoped to have Rhino to play with T-Splines beta, but I have not been able to purchase Rhino yet. Now I'm not so sure T-Splines will do everything I wanted, although in many areas it still sounds like the ideal surfacing tool.
