A Simple Question to 3ds max Experts

I have a scene which I saved with 0 overlapping vertices, checked 100x, and everything is also OK according to xView, non-overlapped UVs, etc.

This is it:

BUT... Due to an unknown bug(?), every time I re-opening the scene in 3ds max, xView shows 5614 overlapping Vertices (!?) /model has 8232 verts
total, this is on a specific area, where I used the chamfer modifier before converting the whole thing to editable poly./

All other xView parameters are still ok, just this d.mn Vertices thing..
The model still looks the same, no visual artifacts in the viewport nor glitches at the rendered image.

I found a very quick solution for this, but I'll have to redo at every re-open:

Select the model, xView -> 'Click Here To Configure' -> set tolerance to 0,001cm, update with xView ('Click Here To Update'), and DONE.
0 Overlapping Vertices. Save the scene.


Is that correct, what I'm thinking, that this is just a bug with max (or xView is just not reliable enough)?

Any help is much appreciated.
