*CYLINDRICAL TO CARTESIAN COORDINATES*
======================================

Converts a curve defined in cylindrical coordinates (r, θ, z) to Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z). Use this worker whenever downstream processing or visualization requires Cartesian-space geometry from cylindrically-parameterized curve data.

When to use
-----------

Classification: **process**.

Tagged: ``cartesian``, ``coordinate_transform``, ``curve``, ``cylindrical``, ``geometry``.
