Ticket #12427, comment 27
v6 v7 9 9 10 10 The intersection of the planes with the ellipsoid yield a maximum of three different arcs. 11 If the arcs obtained by intersecting the last two planes are unequal, I suggest these to "enclose"the geodesic.11 If the arcs obtained by intersecting the last two planes are unequal, I suggest these to enclose the geodesic. 12 12 13 13 If the normals ''do'' intersect, and {{{IP}}} is ''neither in'' equatorial plane ''nor on'' polar axis, all three arcs will be equal ''and'' be the true shortest arc between the points. The same applies if {{{IP}}} lies ''uncentered'' in equatorial plane, but at least one of the normals lies not.
