> The class name {{ConvexSubPlane}} is somewhat ungainly. The name {{Facet}} might be a better name for this class. This similar to how the convex subhyperplane class in 2D is named {{Segment}} and not "ConvexSubLine".
> Pros:
> - Shorter, more familiar name
> - More consistency with the naming conventions of convex subhyperplanes in other dimensions (eg, Segment, GreatArc)
> Cons:
> - The name "facet" does not necessarily imply that the shape is convex. However, this is the common usage.
