Description
Based on #3456 I am opening a new issue as suggested.
A small summary follows:
- We have no control on Skia as it is a google tool and google is famous to drop its own products
- Skia supports only 2D animation,
- We use only a tiny part of Skia, namely we use it only for bool operation (which to me feels like to kill a fly with a cannon)
Perhaps, if we want support only 2D for boolean operations, we may think to rely on a simpler tool with less dependencies and for which we could have some control, like svgpathtools but I feel that it requires some "in-house" work that may take some time (I honestly see this as a good MsC thesis work for some student).
Alternatively this one seems to stand-out: Pyclipr is a Python library offering the functionality of the Clipper2 polygon clipping and offsetting library

And here for a 3D-library

(the latter is also suggested in the description of the former and it has python bindings).
