Research direction

Reproduce the issue using the Sandcastle Show or Hide Entities example URL, switch to 2D, and zoom around the geometry to observe the ordering changes and z-fighting. Trace the 2D rendering path for translucent geometry; done means translucency remains consistently ordered without z-fighting while zooming.
