Description
As discussed with @Nimrais, we might speed up projections if we utilize exponential map to reparameterize the gradient to reduce variance instead of control variate strategy.

Research direction
No file or test is named; start by locating the projection path and its current control-variate strategy in the Julia library. Compare the proposed exponential-map reparameterization for projection speed and gradient variance, and treat the work as done when the new approach and its evaluation are defined.
