> Currently, the random tests here allow a TOLERANCE and will fail if the error 
> exceeds. But this is not fun to debug! It also keeps the door wide open for 
> bugs to creep in.
> Alternatively, we can rework the tests like we did for sandbox/ points. This 
> means the test is aware of the index-time quantization and so it can demand 
> exact answers.
> Its more difficult at first, because even floating point error can cause a 
> failure. It requires us to maybe work through corner cases/rework 
> optimizations. If any epsilons must be added, they can be added to the 
> optimizations themselves (e.g. bounding box) instead of the user's result.
