I might split that out since you're talking about something that modifies the geometry. Sounds potentially very useful for molds etc.

I think it’s cleaner if that lives as a different feature. I can see more features coming that modify geometry and output a QV for downstream operations (like the auto split edges feature I just made based on Ramons autoLoftconnections work)
People looking for this ‘split faces by direction function’ aren’t going to be looking for it in a QV function, nor does the QV function lend itself well for the interface and functionality expansion that this operation may warrant later down the line.
Yeah probably best to just make a different feature instead of making QV+ sometimes produce unexpected behavior. Looks like the only 2 real operations that return a query are related to shadow projection or isocline results for draft type features so I'll just split those off into their own thing.
