Why not a middle ground? For some things it would be silly not to support n
dimensions, like dot product, but for others, like cross product, the
n-dimensional generalization is more complicated, and (if I understand
correctly), not even technically a vector. For those cases, you could give
an error if n > 3.

Could someone write up a list if everything that would be tricky to do in n
dimensions (rather than 3)? Someone mentioned creating a wiki page. That
would be a good place for this.

By the way, you say Rn, but is there a reason to not use Cn instead? Or
maybe it won't actually matter for 99% of the code.

Stefan had mentioned that I should stay away from things other than R3.
But, Rn would obviously be more desirable (just as your post mentioned).
Hence the poll.
