sense to me. There is nothing in that word that says 'user-defineable' or
anything. If you want to change the labels, `.relabel` is there for you.
well, `.relabel()` does relabel things in a user-defineable way (at least
it has this option).

cannot care less: if you chose to overlook that all our functions will
have as many ways to call the same thing (labels, coordinate, ... do you
see this end?) then I will not fight again, it's your win anytime because
you are the reviewer and by Sage's laws you can make my life hell until I
give up.
I merely say that `coordinates` is more informative name for this
parameter.
Do you agree? If yes, I will change this on #19226, to make it uniform
with !ProjectiveGeometryDesign.

this ticket is closed, as you know. How about #19226?

Perhaps the way `PG` is called changed in the meantime, I do not remember.
If you feel bad about it you can write a ticket, it's always good to see
speed improvements.
probably it's because it handles the case of 1-dimensional subspaces by
generic code, which does linear algebra on matrices...
