Comment (by pramsey):

 PostGIS has already made its piece with representing invalid geometries.
 You can load all kinds of bad stuff. However, thanks for this reminder
 that there's actually other things you can hand-build in PostGIS that you
 cannot round trip.
 {{{
 select st_astext(st_makeline(ARRAY['POINT(0 0)'::geometry]));
 }}}
 Making "round trip" a principle also opens the door to geometries with Inf
 coordinates. What's the UTILITY of doing all this?
