Lesson 3 · Combining Shapes
Keep the overlap with intersection
intersection() keeps only the volume that every child shares. Intersecting a cube with a slightly larger sphere gives a cube with rounded corners, a quick way to soften a shape.
Unlike difference(), the order of children in intersection() does not matter.
Your task: keep only the part where the cube and the sphere overlap.
