Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [comment:52 vbraun]:

 childhood diseases any more and it is generally preferable to use IEEE
 propagation of nans through floating point operations than riddle your
 code with if/else and the ensuing pipeline stalls.

 Seriously, you're arguing that rendering 3D figures with NaN coordinates
 is a good thing? I find it hard to believe that rendering a figure with
 2000 faces (half of which aren't drawn due to !NaNs) is faster than first
 removing the offending faces and rendering a figure with 1000 faces.
