<jats:p><jats:bold>Abstract—</jats:bold> ‐Major surface fissures and relatively large‐scale, angular surface irregularities are expected to have been present on many asteroids at early stages in their histories as a byproduct of at least two processes (impact disruption and reassembly into rubble piles for all classes of asteroid and, for carbonaceous chondrite parent bodies, aqueous alteration) which led to the low bulk densities currently being observed for asteroids. However, in all cases where high‐enough resolution images exist, such abrupt, deep irregularities are not observed.
