I have posted it many times yes. You hit it on the head. They are very good for modeling for example rigid transformations or robot joints.
They are a special case of GA. I used to very much into GA only to realize that dynamic 3D is the most interesting space, the other spaces are actually kinda boring.
For sure they are an interesting concept, thanks for introducing me to them. I cannot apply them to my work (crystallography) because we are only interested in orientations, but they may come handy at some point.
