Cartography: Conventional Projections:
"The geometric constants or controls of all conventional projections are predicated upon a three-dimensional coordinate system-- comprised of an admixture of great circles with a variety of nonuniform lesser circles-- that the constants which provide the original reference controls inherently are broken open and their finite quality converted to infinite-- in respect to some part of their transformation data.
“The internal Earth lines formed in the intersection of all three-dimensional coordinate planes of all predecessor world projection methods represents a hodge-podge of lengths and angles-of-incidence to the Earth’s external surface. When the surfaces are stripped off the Earth and arranged in projected planar condition, these lines and angles look like a runover porcupine.”
