You're making the word "some" do a lot of work in this comment. It's true that eg I would represent the inertia tensor with a matrix. But I would calculate it with GA... and I struggle to think of many other physics problems for which I wouldn't use GA (Poisson bracket in GA is particularly elegant). See my other comment on projections I suppose.

On the other hand, from what you've posted you're clearly experienced with computer graphics - it sounds like you have at some point interpolated with dual quaternions?

This hackernews thread may not be sustainable, so perhaps join the bivector discord? https://discord.gg/bBvkuTrM I would be very interested to find out the precise things you care about, on the off chance that there is some not-yet-known-to-you way that GA can help you.
