That is one of the many questions I have
FBiGeom is in MeshKit, and iGeom_MOAB offered (a partial) iGeom. FBiGeom offers the (same) partial iGeom.

If we take it out, we cannot easily call iGeom in MOAB

Do we even plan to?

At the same time, if we leave it there, it should be definitely fixed to call FBEngine, but it will be maybe wrong to offer it in 2 places
