Prevent (!) Line elimination

Hey folks, I have a TUBE{2} and need my lines to be NOT eliminated.
See this picture below, just two cubes (as dummy) to show the issue. If you stack them, they will join and I somehow need to prevent this from happening, since they need to be visually different.
The MASK parameter for the tube{2} is set to 1+2+16+32, which means, the line elimination flags are not set (especially looking at you, 1024!).
Yet, it still eliminates the line between the two objects.

In my example above it is the same object, just placed twice, so it is stacked upon each other, which will lead to the line elimination.

What is different in your script to the one from A. Smith, that you do not get the lines?

Two boxes in TWO objects vs two boxes in ONE object.

This is interesting, because 2 double boxes on top of each other have a separation line,
while 2 singles boxes don't have.
