Yes I understand that. But after looking at your doc, AFAIKT the two 
hierarchies differ precisely on the diamond. In geos there's an 
inheritance link between Puntal and Geometry whereas in JTS Puntal is 
just an interface, and therefore there are no diamonds.

In geos there is:

Geometry
    |
    +------- Puntal
    |          |
    |          |
  Point--------+

In JTS:

Geometry
    |
    |        Puntal
    |          |
    |          |
  Point--------+


Please correct me if I'm missing something here.
