not sure whats going on, things kicking my butt.

boolean-cut-refine causes all sorts of "helper" edges to apear

and if i make a four sided box (six polys) it automatically makes it 12polys by adding diagnals

What's meant by "polygon" is a surface drawn between three points.  Since your box has four points per side, there has to be two polys to account for the extra point.  On a pyramid, each side has only three points, hence the four polys.
