Description
When the input grid for `geom_contour()` contains points with `z = 0`, removing these zero-value nodes causes a noticeable distortion in the shape of the contour lines. This makes contour plots highly sensitive to the presence of zero-value nodes, even when those nodes are outside the actual contour levels of interest.
Example:
```python
data = {
'x': [1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4],
'y': [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4],
'z': [1, 4, 9, 16, 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 4, 5, 8, 13, 20, 9, 10, 13, 18, 25, 16, 17, 20, 25, 32],
}
ggplot(data) + geom_contour(aes('x', 'y', z='z')) + coord_fixed()
```
Output:
Expected:
In ggplot2 with the same data:
