TL;DR
Thurstone's invariant box problem has 2 features which prevent the finding of the obvious simple structure by any of the usual analytic methods of rotation.

The present system was designed originally; to identify, in a homogeneous callection of questionnaire or inventory items or of tests, groups of items which can be scored as subtests, or groups of testsWhich can be combined to yield globa1-trait scores, but it may well be applicable to other problems.
Multivariate Behavioral ResearchBrief Report: Maxplane Meets Thurstone's "Factorially Invariant" Box Problem

Using Maxplane, Thurstone's Box Problem is shown to be indeterminate and it is suggested that obtained data matrices may often not be determinate with respect to simple structure, and that prolonged experimentation may be required before it is reasonable to expect such determinacy.
