I don't know if you could intersect a box against the BVH, but i guess not.
but that has been the story with nvidia and their dubious dishonest tactics, it is not?
They do that kind of shenanigans all the time. Speaking of nvidia they are in the news again with another player they over promise, and not surprising the screw up as usual.

The complain say this.
[NVIDIA] made false and misleading statements to the market. NVIDIA touted its ability to monitor the cryptocurrency market and make rapid changes to its business as necessary. The Company claimed to be 'masters at managing our channel, and we understand the channel very well'.
…
"Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about NVIDIA, investors suffered damages," the complaint continues.
sound very much like my opinions about Nvidia does it not?
I can only imagine those poor investors salivating when Nvidea approach them promising some brand new law of economic in the from of a shader or some * like that, until they figure out it was all façade.
The next shoe to drop is the NVidia AI driving cars, it will only take people start getting into accidents possible even dying on those Nvidia powered self driving car, and when the layers find out that the thing in common is Nvidia GPU that will probably be the last draw that will break the camel back, and some action will reign in nvidia unethical and dishonest practices.
The problem with nvidea is that they are not honest brokers, they do not play by the same law honest developer play by, they keep making new rules and real the real word is not the same as video games.
