I'm trying to hide some effects writers in my base with Chisels and Bits, but apparently the empty space on the face with the writer on it isn't somewhere bits can fit. It's kind of dissonant with the writer's model itself. Is fixed in later versions and/or is it intentional? I'm on 1.10.2-0.7.8 right now, for reference.

This is indeed intentional at the moment, as more complicated bounding boxes would reduce performance. Perhaps I can come up with a clean solution in the future.

Ok, thank you. Since I'm using effect writers, I can just use X- and Y- offset to put them off to the side for now.
