You don't see UV mapping, texturing, lighting and compositing.

Blender can dress low poly shapes like these.

So far it's the same views I was getting in Wings 3D. Back then, I had to generate the geodesic shapes in another program. Blender has a Geodesic plug-in.

Dome 4.2 had duals, frequency and maybe orientation, but parameters like Squish, Square X/Y, Square Z and Superformula are unknowns; probably to include superelliptic shapes.

To answr my own question:
