Added operator to replace currently selected objects with occurences of the chosen type. I kept doing this from the code and thought it could be generally useful.
It's working pretty naive now and just replacing objects with occurences preserving the original transform (location/rotation/scale), nothing else is preserved.

PS Hopefully I'm not reinventing the wheel and not missed some other similar operator
Also noticed in Sigma Dimensions video that every time user deletes a storey or applies new elevation the selection was jumping to the first storey. Now it's going to be more natural.

Search for compatible fitting wasn't taking into account that maybe fitting used for the same segments but fitting's parameters are not the same (such as start_length, end_length, angle and offset between profiles).
I also forgot to promote transition angle to operator's property😬
Error traceback is below - it was trying to set IfcExtrudedAreaSolid.Position to None when in IFC2x3 Position wasn't optional, so now in IFC2X3 it's going to have some default position

It will make sure you'll be able to see the project's elements in viewport when it's loaded (same way as if you'd select all objects and hit "Numpad .").
Couldn't find any way to make it work without enablging / disabling selection - https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/112141
