I am grateful to Dr Richard Klitzing for allowing me to present his (unpublished) work here (with some minor amendment) (JM):

I have recently looked at the consequences of the fact that the rhombi forms of the quasitruncated polyhedra, i.e. those with Dynkin diagram:  (o)-ⁿ¹/_d1-o-ⁿ²/_d2-(o) or vertex notation [ⁿ¹/_d1,4,ⁿ²/_d2,4], are topological identical to the snub polyhedra with Dynkin diagram ()-ⁿ¹/_d1-()-ⁿ²/_d2-() or vertex notation [3,3,ⁿ¹/_d1,3,ⁿ²/_d2], provided one dissects the squares of the former diagonally following the symmetry group of the second (which is a subgroup of that of the former of index 2).

Only recently Mr. Verheyen informed me about his article "The complete set of Jitterbug transformers and the analysis of their motions". It is concerned about the setups and the motions of pairs of polygons, but any filling of the holes is not explicitly considered therein.

The first thing one would like to do would be to get this topological identity into a continous deformation, i.e. to have a kind of movie which transforms the first state into the second. The easiest way is to discard the rhombisquares for a moment; having in mind only that these holes form in general a nonplanar equilateral tetragon, to which the shorter diagonal will be added as additional edge.

Discarding these rhombisquares of [ⁿ¹/_d1,4,ⁿ²/_d2,4], one would be left with a kind of a net spun around the sphere, consisting of alternating ⁿ¹/_d1-gons and ⁿ²/_d2-gons, stuck together pairwise at their vertices. Doing this abstraction for the snub polyhedra as well (discarding the flag triangles), one would observe that the symmetry axes of the remaining polygons are identical, the polygons are only twisted around them, say with angles chi₁ and chi₂.

The condition that the vertices have to be connected would result in the fact that the sines and the circumradii r₁ and r₂ of the polygons ⁿ¹/_d1 and ⁿ²/_d2 obey

 r₁*sin(chi₁) = r₂*sin(chi₂)

or more explicitly

 sin(chi₁) / sin(180*^d1/_n1) = sin(chi₂) / sin(180*^d2/_n2)

i.e. these angles chi aren't independent.

Next is, that again by the same condition these polygons are forced to alter their heights above the center of the polyhedron. (The height of the ⁿ¹/_d1-gons would be

h₁ = (r₂*cos(chi₂)-r₁*cos(chi₁)*cos(psi)) / sin(psi)

here psi is the angle between the planes defined by two connected ⁿ¹/_d1 and ⁿ²/_d2-gons.)

Having introduced the angles chi the deformation has become continous. Now one gets curious to look beyond the starting and the final points, to see what comes next. Going beyond the starting point (A), that is having chi₁< 0, this would generate nothing new, for chi'₁=-chi₁ would reproduce the same polyhedra as chi₁, only the right chirality would change into a left chirality.

Going beyond the final point (B) instead would become more interesting.Here there would come a point (C) where the deformed squares become degenerate. This would be the case when the trigons are rotated about 60 degrees or alternatively the pentagrams are rotated about 72 degrees. Drilling further the net polygons ⁿ¹/_d1 and ⁿ²/_d2 do intersect.

If both net polygons have vertex angles which are small enough, there would be further on another interesting point (D), where the deformed (and now retrograde) holes become again the form of a pair of equilateral triangles. But finally you would come to a sudden stop: if the polygon with the smaller vertex angle, say ⁿ¹/_d1, has been rotated by chi₁ = 90 degrees.

The trial of a rotation still further, that is having chi₁ > 90 degrees, could be interpreted in different ways. This is due to the fact that no inverse function of the sine exists. (One could use the branch of arcsin, but any other as well.) That is, either (a) you have to make a jump (or discontinuity) in chi₂ from chi₂=chi₂(chi₁=90) to chi₂=180-chi₂(chi₁=90) and rotate then both polygons in the same direction as before, or (b) you have to rotate chi₁ onwards up to 180 degrees and chi₂ would be reduced backwards down to 0 degrees. (note: in case of ⁿ¹/_d1=ⁿ²/_d2 the discontinuity in case (a) degenerates, i.e. you are left with a bifurcating point.)

In spite of the discontinuity, (a) is in a way the more natural branch, as both polygons are rotated in the same direction as before. But, alas, it wouldn't produce anything new: chi'₁=180-chi₁ would reproduce exactly the same polyhedra as chi₁, only the way of looking would be retrograde: the inside and outside of the 'net polygons' would be interchanged.

Therefore, we are left with the other branch (b). On that branch other things do occur, but those are mostly less interesting than the ones of the first quarter rotation of ⁿ¹/_d1. For the Platonic family, for example, only a single highly degenerate intermediate state (B') with coincident faces would come up. For the Keplerian family there are more interesting intermediate states (E), producing uniform polyhedra again. Finally, at rotation chi₁ = 180 degrees, there would be in any case the last state (A'), where the holes become squares again.

In the sense of a continuous deformation, keeping the same edges connected while rotating, only cases (A) the exploded form, (B) the outer snub, (C) the closed hole, (D) the inner snub, (A') the imploded form are relevant. Cases (B') and (E) belong to other possible closings of the holes.
