I have not read the sofa problem I am not qualified to even talk about it.

Given a rectangle tunnel, twist it so the walls become the ceiling, and also turn it in the same time. Seems like the same problem..

What is solved here is maximum shape, it feels like moving a object like this in 3D is basically a robot planning thing which in it self obviously magic for me. Finding a continuous path in a configuration space is the easy part, but then you have to understand how that changes when your shape changes.
