I can't see the bulge on the real part nor in online pictures such as rebrickable. The 4-quarter bulge could just be simplified to a cylc.

The part in my hands actually show these lines rather prominently, I liked the "before" mesh... Question is if it properly shows in Studio renders

Clearly the bulge is useless. Here's a Studio render (and an editor view). The simplified version is on the right.

...and why does this piece of crap shows gaps in the ring???? There are only regular primitives there!

When doing the Zeppelin, I had to play around a lot to get the shape properly visible in studio's render.

The part is fine the way it is now

Apologies. I thought there was only one version. Since Gerald has a piece that shows the quarter bulge, please bring back the "before" version.
