ROOT CAUSE

Volume replaces total face area.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply the specified mathematical contract directly, preserving all terms and boundary cases: return 2*(a*b+b*c+c*a)

Unsuccessful approach: Edge lengths replace pairwise face products.

Case contract

Nonnegative integer dimensions; exact products and ordinary Python real division. Quantities named divided by pi or pi-squared deliberately omit that factor from the returned result. Cuboid surface area. Exact operational definition: 2*(a*b+b*c+c*a)

Why this case matters

Small exact fixtures expose this error without platform timing, external services, or probabilistic observations. Solid geometry results depend on the stated convention.

Verification & scope

This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
