Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-6759:
-------------------------------------
Thinking through why one error measure just doesn't work in this case:
(1) The point in question is on the wrong side of the GeoCircle plane, and is
pretty nearly the *closest* point on the XYZSolid to the GeoCircle plane.
(2) The slight tilt of the GeoCircle plane is enough to put the upper
intersection point beyond the MINIMUM_RESOLUTION distance (at a distance of
roughly 1e-8). That removes the first candidate intersection point from
consideration.
(3) Because the GeoCircle is almost at the edge of the world, the slope between
the GeoCircle plane and the planet surface is quite high, so a small error
distance in X translates to a large distance in Y or Z. That allows the second
candidate intersection point to be removed from consideration.
