Ahh, but can it do a clean self-reversing diamond thread including the reversing portion?

You'd be amazed how hard this is to achieve with open source tools. IIRC modern FreeCAD can't, old FreeCAD can, ~5 ways to achieve it in OpenSCAD don't work properly, Blender keeps shifting-sands and mostly can't but I believe the very latest can maybe do it with difficulty using geometry nodes.
