$fn = $preview ? 32 : 64;
Just a minor aside: When exporting geometry for FEM, you generally should not make $fn very high (values around 32–64 are usually fine). High $fn improves visual smoothness, but it often hurts FEM meshing and solver performance without improving accuracy, since FEM accuracy is governed by the solver’s mesh rather than the CAD tessellation.
