> Based on discussion in GEOMETRY-17, we should investigate the floating point accuracy of the current Vector normalization methods. Specifically, when the UnitVector private subclass in Vector3D is implemented to return exactly 1.0, the SphericalPolygonsSetTest#testGeographicalMap unit test in commons-geometry-enclosing begins to fail. We should
>  # Determine the cause of this failure.
>  # Determine if the current approach with the UnitVector subclasses introduces any issues with floating point accuracy.
>  # Add unit tests for Vector[123]D to quantify and verify the accuracy of the normalization.
