      For reasons unknown to me the edges of the siding profile shown in the images is not shown. None smoothed, none softened, none hidden.

      They are, however, displaced from others by just a bit, say 5/16" (the depth of the fiber cement board); is this the problem?

      The wall depth is 6"; the different colored faces are about 3" and 11" each.

        Uh... 'twas because the edges defining the faces were on a different layer than the other entities in the group and not '0' and the mother entity was on another layer still. Should'a looked there first.... and saved myself the humiliation of being an object lesson in answering one's own, or some such contained more explicitly herein, about being very mindful of nested layers almost always being best '0' and '0' only. (Which I knew and practice, but made a boo-boo just the same.)
