Wikipedia was talking about removing it from articles to combat antisemitism

I got into 3D recently and after learning some basics I understood that Epic saying that you don't need to bake anymore because you can just import from zbrush is the most retarded thing you can spout. BUT MUH MILLIONS OF TRIANGLES
Worthless, the triangle count means nothing if materials suck and engine sucks and you suck and holy fucking shit I can't imagine any serious artist-gamer people working with AAA studios because Epic destroys the principles of good 3D modelling just to appease the execs who think that they will save some money by telling artists to remove the retopology step out of the 3D pipeline because "the nanite can handle this much geometry!". Even non-game 3d stuff gets optimized for the sake of rigging and actual speed at which you can interact with objects in editor. Triangle counts still matter in rendering and even if you're using path tracing for a render you can still see significant speed-ups in render time if you optimize your meshes.
