Blender sort of has them... There was the original metaballs. But more recently there's also been sdf addons using geometry nodes [1] that mimic the same workflow - with my guess being that it uses voxels to generate the final polygon mesh that blender needs since it's not a fully sdf editor. Although, while I was googling this, I did find someone that managed to do it by using pure shaders [2] which is pretty cool. Also, thanks for actually explaining that. I've seen a few examples of this kind of "clay like" sculpting approach that tries to make it easier for artists. Adobe's Modeler uses sdfs for example.
