 As reported on AskSage [1], the function `.is_planar` can return wrong
 results when given a specific embedding to run its computations on.

 This actually comes from a mistake in a `if/else` and variable types, as
 `bool(a_dictionary)` returns `True` when the dictionary is nonempty. The
 original authors did not seem to be aware of that, and once fixed the code
 does not mak the mistake again.
