Description

Plotly version:

# ubuntu20.04LTS
plotly==5.5.0

when run:

import numpy as np
import plotly.graph_objects as go

x = np.array([2, 0, 2, 4], dtype=np.float64)
y = np.array([2, 0, 2, 0], dtype=np.float64)
z = np.array([4, 0, 0, 0], dtype=np.float64)
fig = go.Figure(data=[go.Mesh3d(x=x, y=y, z=z, opacity=0.5)])

fig.show()

Why not contain (2, 2, 0) in the graph?

Research direction

Start by running the provided Mesh3d reproduction with Python, NumPy, and Plotly 5.5.0 to confirm why (2, 2, 0) is outside the displayed 3D axis range. Trace the Mesh3d axis-range handling, then verify that all supplied points are included in the graph.
