Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the self-intersecting cartographic polygon on Google Photorealistic 3D Tiles, checking tile visibility at different zoom levels with Exclude Tiles disabled; done should include a confirmed cause and verification that the affected tiles no longer disappear.
