 *
 *  Of some primitives that can use a parameter to locate a point on its surface (like
 *  Line3D, Plane3D, ...), some will not have points for all possible values of the
 *  parameter (like Ray3D, LineSegment3D, ...).  For a Ray3D, only the parameters t >= 0
 *  are valid.  For LineSegment3D, only 0 <= t <= 1 is valid.
