It allows you to provide an angle limit and merges planes connected at angles smaller than the limit. Given that the skin modifier produces several parallel planes along edges, setting the angle limit to something arbitrarily small (though greater than zero, like one degree) will eliminate all of these extra planes without deforming the mesh too much at all. Plus, the resulting topology is decent and generally doesn't require remeshing. | |
