I think it's partly something to do with the fact that it's just a shell, not a complete half dome, and partly to do with the smoothing that's made up the facets of the shape.

I have other smoothing methods in Wings, which I'm going to try - or I might also try modeling it in C4D too, if Wings' smoothing doesn't manage it.

Was it a hypernurbs object?  And yeah, it's fascinating the difference the modelling method on a simple half dome can make.
