Or the capacity to describe a polygon...
I call the 80/20 rule into effect here.

Fine, I'm confident that more than 80% of countries, counties, towns,
cities, gardens, parks, nature reserves, and industrial estates are
polygons, and fewer than 20% are circles.

You really missed the point. Think about it like this. If you were to pick up a map and point out roughly where you took some photo of your kids in a park (or whatever) and you wanted to pick up a pen and mark the location, you're not going to sit there and carefully outline the polygon shape of the park, you're going to draw something like an X or a circle to show the rough location. That's the concept that this thread is discussing.
