Description
Mesh3d creates useless or phantom "walls" on rendering. The issue was already described in 2016 here (case 1, case 2) but was abandoned without solution or any bug report. Recently, I met the same behavior with my data (see picture below, red lines drawn manually).
From another view the edges are displayed properly.
This shall be displayed in proper way. I tested it in with similar data in Wolfram Mathematica.
Attached data (Jupyter notebook, and CSV data):

Research direction
Start with the attached error_plots_bug.zip, including its Jupyter notebook and CSV data, and reproduce the Mesh3d rendering from the reported views. Compare the generated mesh with the expected geometry shown in the screenshots and determine when the phantom walls are absent in all views.
