David Smiley commented on LUCENE-8369:
--------------------------------------
Lots of awesome functionality _commonly_ needed in search is in our modules --
like highlighting, autocomplete, and spellcheck, to name a few. Why should
spatial be an exception?
> Remove the spatial module as it is obsolete

> The "spatial" module is at this juncture nearly empty with only a couple
> utilities that aren't used by anything in the entire codebase --
> GeoRelationUtils, and MortonEncoder. Perhaps it should have been removed
> earlier in LUCENE-7664 which was the removal of GeoPointField which was
> essentially why the module existed. Better late than never.
