We discuss the employed covariant tensor formalism and the treatment of large incoherent backgrounds in our sample. We give preliminary results on light-meson resonances appearing in the $\pi^-\pi^-\pi^+$ system, including $a_1(1420)$, and in the $\pi^-\pi^+$ subsystem, measured using the so-called freed-isobar method; and we give prospects for measurements at Belle II. 000004355 8560_ $$fdjaffe@bnl.gov 000004355 8564_ $$uhttps://docs.belle2.org/record/4355/files/BELLE2-TALK-CONF-2024-064.pdf
