Lol yes, even I didn't expect a polyhedron to escape the matrix, I tried to reciprocate the experiment myself without knowing the way they did it, but I lost hope midway.
Its facets, angles, and combinatorial structure are crafted so meticulously that in every possible orientation and cutting plane, no hole large enough for an identical copy can be formed without breaking the convexity or going outside the polyhedron.
Then I realized "Hell no, they were checking a finite (but vast) set of possible “Rupert holes" on computer and I'm being stupid doing it by hand"
Rupee holes ? Does this relate to econophysics and thermodynamics ? Why are you not answering questions and have sus intentions that I’m fake speech hence the counterspeech! Thanks in advance!

You'd be better served reading the article you linked yourself.
That will answer your question.
