Description
To avoid requiring that users transform world points to use the functions. Though at times (eg geometry generation) you want a local version of the ellipsoid. In this case you could copy the ellipsoid and remove the transform, though.

Research direction
Start by locating the ellipsoid implementation and the functions that currently require world points to be transformed. Compare the global-frame behavior with the local version needed for geometry generation, then verify that both use cases remain supported when the change is complete.
