My understanding is that there's nothing intrinsically tying us to ±90°
by ±180°, based on the responses I got on #osm when asking about the
possibility of mapping something with a geometry grossly different from
Earth's (ie, Second Life).

On Earth, at least, anything outside of the ±180x90° range is likely
subject to standard trigonometry in terms of placement, assuming it's
not rejected.
