Hi
I found a "strange" behaviour about EPSG, ESRI and nadcon5, that I do not
know if we are aware of.
Running the next command
PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./projinfo -s EPSG:4269 -t EPSG:6318 --3d -o proj
--spatial-test intersects
I get in PROJ 9.4.1

Based on the names in the operation description, this seems to be from
ESRI. The first from EPSG appears at position 8.
If I try to do actual transformations, this is what I get with PROJ 9.4.1
$ echo "40 -100" | PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./cs2cs EPSG:4269 EPSG:6343 -d 6 --3d
414639.611409 4428235.937716 -0.004468
$ echo "40 -100" | PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./cs2cs EPSG:4269 EPSG:6318 -d 6 --3d

414639.622273 4428235.952568 -0.004468
And this with PROJ 9.5.0
$ echo "40 -100" | PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./cs2cs EPSG:4269 EPSG:6343 -d 6 --3d
414639.611409 4428235.937716 -0.004468
$ echo "40 -100" | PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./cs2cs EPSG:4269 EPSG:6318 -d 6 --3d
40.000000 -100.000000 0.000000
$ echo "40 -100" | PROJ_NETWORK=ON ./cs2cs EPSG:4269 EPSG:6318 -d 6 --3d |
./cs2cs EPSG:6318 EPSG:6343 -d 6 --3d
414639.538157 4428236.064519 0.000000
What is the reason exactly? Is that expected?
Thanks
