Why does Qt's 3d thing lack even the basic functions?
Because it doesnt. Have a look here:

wanted to render a sphere and glut has the glutSolidSphere() function - but Qt doesn't seem to have such a thing! Am I missing something? Why does Qt's 3d thing lack even the basic functions?
I think maybe you are confused about what glut is. It is a convenience library, primarily to add basic user interface capabilities to an openGL scene. By that definition Qt is a better replacement. As for the fluff (glutSphere, etc) I think many openGL programmers would probably write their own anyways. It's not rocket science.
