Yes that was my read as well except previously it was the Grass method and
now it is Geographic Lib method because that is theoretically more accurate
and is the same method that is used in Postgis and other places. The
switched happened because someone noticed the difference between QGIS’s
calculations and Postgis’s calculations. If I am reading the pull requests
correctly even Grass has switched to the Geographic Lib method. I’m
surprised that ArcGIS Pro uses the same method as the Grass method.
