Which points to an issue that refinement doesn't work on actual features (i.e. if Refine == True for only last feature in the sequence, the end result is equivalent to having Refine == True for all other features too).
Thanks for your insight.
While having refine == true for the last feature should be equivalent to having refine == true for the last, it may not be the case because of invalid shapes generated based on previous features if refine was false on them.
I put all you said into my input list

I like the idea of integrating refinement in the Part Design Workbench without exra features. If I understand it right, the problem is, that there are cases where it is necessary to have the refinement switched off. Perhaps we should talk about these cases. Can someone please provide an example?
I think it is a very pertinent observation. Because I can not answer the question myself, I have been trying to get community feedback. I think, I may be wrong, that because of the little use of the current "autorefine" option, we, as a community, may not have a clear answer to this question.
Currently, in order to better understand what we need myself, I am doing a half-complex design with autorefine=on. Let's see if I manage to draw some conclusions.
If anybody has more experience than I with this topic I very much welcome further information.
