Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-7212:
-------------------------------------

bq. How expensive are geo3d's distance formulas though?

It varies -- that's one of the reasons there are different DistanceStyle 
implementations.  The cheapest (squared linear distance) is quite cheap; the 
most expensive (arc distance) requires several Math.acos invocations (for a 
path).

> Add Geo3DPoint equivalents of LatLonPointDistanceComparator and 
> LatLonPointSortField

> Geo3D has a number of distance measurements and a generic way of computing 
> interior distance.  It would be great to take advantage of that for queries 
> that return results ordered by interior distance.
