Agreed. As said, we have performed this transfomation using another self made tool. Still, after this transformation rotational energy is not equidistributed. Can we agree that using constraints or a rigid body approach (so maybe using quaternions) should give the same physics (so the same equipartition rules should apply to both systems)? Or if we cannot agree on this, what kind of physical objects are constraint waters if not rigid bodies?
