I'm not exactly certain why those options work better, other than they provides a more definite 'frame' for the 3D graphics. The rotation and zoom action are surely a front end function and feature. I'm also not certain why these are not the default action for Graphics3D. Perhaps there is some downside. I provide a shortcut NiceRotation option in Presentations and use it all the time. I just don't like the jumping around of the image when one lets go of the mouse. With the default behavior, if you do a little zooming first then after that the rotation is smooth. But sometimes the zooming is unstable. So I always use NiceRotation.

But why is that so? I realized that it works for Histogram3D as well. Is it a bug or a machine specific problem? I can't seem to duplicate the same problem on the other machine though.
