Okay, so that does help for the presentation, but that seems to make the metallic art non-vector. So when they approve this graphic and want a vector version, what am I supposed to tell them?

I have removed all of the other elements of the logo from this AI file, because I'm sure my client wouldn't want me posting it in public.
It *feels* like it's an issue with drawing vectors around very tight corners.
I have since posting this discovered that if I scale the whole thing up about 6x, the lines are still there, but are almost unnoticeable, so I should be able to limp this through to my presentation tomorrow, at least. (3000px vs 500 or so)
When I try to ungroup the letters (which are outlines with a stroke, though the same thing happens if I just use a path) it deletes the 3D & Materials effect completely from all the letters that were in the group. I'm not sure what you mean by expanded result in this instance. I'm only familiar with that being used as part of trying to vectorize an existing image, vs generating this result in the new 3D & Materials tool. I'm not sure how to proceed with testing your option without removing the effect, and with it, all of the crazy extra lines.
Also, macOS seems to have NO IDEA how to preview any of this. I've only really successfully been able to export any of this as PDF with 'illustrator default' - the rest of the PDF export presets can't handle it any scale.

I just went back and tried over again to create this from scratch and it draws the EXACT same lines again even if I start over completely.
I'm stumped.

I am getting ghost lines in my graphic in vector mode, that are not part of my design. They stay there when exporting as either image or PDF.
I've tried playing with essentially all render and raster settings within the 3D & Materials tab, and I'm stumped.
I don't know what information I need to provide to be useful as reporting an issue, but this is a fairly debilitating issue for me. Kind of breaks the whole process if it starts drawing random extra lines around the image.
Sadly, no. My client ended up going in a different direction after I was unable to get a clean result and I stopped pushing for answers.
