The error message was (it was trying to access curves from the original mesh instead of dummy curve object):
```

it was clearing all other blender materials - e.g. blender materials associated with representation items styles. Also had the same issue with affecting extra elements as with unassigning materials
When you would unassign material (e.g. implicitly by removing the object), it might have also removed materials slots from other occurrences of the same type.
Which may had some unexpected sideffects later on - as unassigned styles saving IFC project (BBIM unassigned styles based on a assumption that it was the user decision to remove the materials and related styles).
previously every operation that would try to create owner history would fail with the error below if there wasn't IfcPersonAndOrganisation in the project.
On older numpy versions, np.ndarray was less forgiving and wasn't allowing passing 1 argument instead of required 2.
And turned out numpy doesn't yet have typing for shapes (https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/16544), so all matrices and other shapes specified as `npt.NDArray[np.float64]`.
Fixed type discrepancies for `get_edges` and `get_faces` and also had to fix `import_ifc` as Blender apparently has problems with storing np.int32 in custom attributes (https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/121072), tested that Blender is okay with np.int32 in other cases we had (addressing BMesh.verts[i] where `i` is np.int32).
Example:
```
import ifcopenshell
ifc_file = ifcopenshell.file(schema="IFC2X3")
# ifc_file.begin_transaction()
wall = ifc_file.createIfcWall()
wall.Identification = "25"
