I would have thought that since that reflection has a different color in different directions, gaussian splat generation would have a hard time coming to a solution that satisfies all of the rays. Or at the very least, that a reflective surface would turn out muddy rather than properly reflective-looking.

Is there some clever trickery that's happening here, or am I misunderstanding something about gaussian splats?

I presume these would look great on good vr headset?
