The QGIS method is an internal method that can return multiple errors and was IIRC introduced, when GEOS could just report one error at a time without a location and we couldn't or didn't yet use it threaded. Essentially it was just made to highlight digitizing errors. It might miss some rules or interpret some edge cases differently than GEOS. Jürgen -- Jürgen E.
