    I see “radial” and think radius and go for the equator of the onion, but I think you’re right and say, an onion ring would be an orbital(?) cut.

    When I say “pole-to-pole”, I don’t get confused at the terminology, so I go for that and can be confident. The others get me in negation loops around thinking it was one thing and remembering that I got it wrong last time and it wasn’t…which one?

      I did a brief google and looks like pole to pole is commonly used as well, I never knew! My main case for radials at this point would be more of a generic term, since if you do half slices first then radial it isn’t really a pole to pole cut anymore despite the same axis, if that makes sense. Probably I’m over thinking this x.x
