The Abs node
When to use it
Strips the sign, and it does two quite different jobs depending on what you feed it.
On a coordinate you get free mirror symmetry. Abs of X makes everything symmetric about the YZ plane.
On a distance field you get a shell. The surface now sits wherever the field was plus or minus zero, so a solid ball turns into a hollow skin. Neither of those is obvious from the name.
