I agree with
STARGÅTE : there are 2 points which match to the initial characteristics.
But what it misses is only a binary status. More accurately, in geometry, what it misses is an
orientation.
The tip of
infratec consists in deciding, on computing, the characteristics (points positions) have an
order.
Point1, point2, etc...
While, in math, this "communicating flow order" does not exist :
PointA, PointB, etc... : while we do not add features in math, every points (or generally, every objects) can be exchangeable (PointA should welly be called PointB, etc...). That is the reason, in math, it misses an information, which is here binary (2 stats). Information which did not seem disturb
infratec.

we can try to ask this in the bug report to understand...
Math remark for
ludoke : I was myself on the point that from 2 two points and from one radius value, as you asked, there were an infinity of results, because there are several manner to describe an arc :
- circular arc
- elliptic arc
- rotated elliptic arc
I was far to answer you...
