Karl Wright commented on LUCENE-8245:
-------------------------------------
The logic for crossing near polygon edges has been *very* carefully thought
out, and the major commit made last weekend was designed to resolve those kinds
of issues once and for all. The comments in the code describe the algorithm,
but basically we are only interested in edges that actually intersect or cross
the travel planes. The reason for above/below planes is to be able to
accurately count links even when some polygon edges are wholly or in part
contained within the envelope.
So it is immaterial that an edge crosses only one or the other envelope planes;
that is the whole point of having the envelope planes, in fact. But we do
assume that the envelope is narrow enough that an edge that ends inside of it
must intersect either the travel plane or the above/below planes; that
assumption may be incorrect.
I will not be able to analyze these cases until later today.

> When a travel plane crosses an edge close to an edge point , it is possible
> that the above and below planes crosses different edges. In the current
> implementation one of the crosses is missed because we only check edges that
> are crossed by the main plain and the {{within}} result is wrong.
> One possible fix is to check always the intersection of planes and edges
> regardless if they are crossed by main plane. That fixed the above issue but
> shows other issues like travel planes crossing two edges when it should be
> only one due to the fuzziness at edge intersections.
> Not sure of a fix so I add the test showing the issue.
