Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-8139:
-------------------------------------

Ignacio, feel free to check LUCENE-7514; there is a reference to randomized 
testing's BiasedNumbers float factory – this indeed selects *very* evil 
floating point numbers; such that crashed geo tests for me easily (but I never 
got to the point of trying to fix them).

> polygon constructor can't reliably find a point inside the polygon

> The polygon factory uses a randomize algorithm to find a point inside of the 
> polygon. This might fail, in particular when polygons are very small. I want 
> to propose a small improvement; Before going into the randomize algorithm, we 
> can first try to try a point defined by the center of mass of the provided 
> points. This approach improves things, for example for very small polygons 
> with three points.
>  
> does it make sense?
