Comment (by jorisvandenbossche):

 What are the thoughts about adding this special case to GEOS?
 I think it would be good to have consistency in reading vs writing in
 GOES, and enable a full roundtrip.

 Further, PostGIS does this as well, and I think Shapely/PyGEOS would like
 to do this as well (in which case they need to add a special case on top
 of their usage of GEOS if it is not changed in GEOS itself).
