@warrenm I work on some scenekit / metal stuff with swift and atm I think SCNMath classes are pure pain to use the simd_ math is good but are not a first class citizens in SCN world. But maybe I missed something? Any hints are welcome :)
Yeah, you’re not alone; I hear this often. Being Metal-centric, I happily use simd all the time. In what sense do you feel simd isn’t first-class in SCN?

For example the SCNQuaternion do not provide me anything useful so I use the simd_quat. Now i have extenions to convert back an forth so the calculation results. Best thing would be if the SCN functions can directly use the simd types instead.

Yep, gotcha. I’d recommend filing Radars for your biggest pain points; they could extend the SCN math utilities in a backward-compatible way, and the sooner that happens, the better.
