Hi David,

That's an important point - does it matter to select which
dimension to loop over? Based on Michael Galloy's analysis
in the original lead on this issue, it seems to me that there
is only one target solution (without interpolation).
A fair test would be to find a case that gives different
results depending on the selection of which dimention.

It will be interesting if someone can find such a case!

Cheers.
