But the proximate problem is the lack of geodetic intersection. There are a lot of constructive geometry problems that could be handled in geography if done in a local gnomonic, but that is of course constrained by the area of application of the projection, so things would fall apart against even very simple examples that happened to extend outside the area of validity.
