You're right! Weird. I'll report it. —rwg On 2019-02-27 05:04, Fred Lunnon wrote:
I could view it straight away, though at first could not immediately rotate the polyhedron plots; trying again 5 minutes later, the first three seemed to wake up and interact, while the fourth remains obstinately static ... is that deliberate? WFL

Whoa! At the suggestion of a little bird, I simply said CloudPublish[] in that Lab notebook, and it returned the URL https://www.open.wolframcloud.com/objects/289beb45-8914-44d6-bc9e-8a869c73fc... Please see if you can access it! —rwg (Not so lucky ("Unknown error") trying to publish the 92 Johnsons from my laptop.)

A nice little three-liner: http://gosper.org/johnson7.pdf . Is it convex? This pdf is a spoiler for a programming lab (https://lab.open.wolframcloud.com/app/) notebook because I have yet to figure out how to unrestrict public access. But wouldn't it be a great way for math-funsters to share typesetting, images, animations, and interactions?
If not convex, exactly what is that nearly straight angle? Note that evil (and misnamed) FindGeometricTransform coerces to floating point!

for RootApproximant to reconstruct the algebraics here. A consolation would be WorkingPrecision.]

I think at some point I exhaustively searched PolyhedronData for Johnson glue jobs and found even narrower convexity failures. Johnson was working with cardboard? —rwg I need to tweak gosper.org/johnsonposter.pdf to disambiguate some hidden undersides.
