Comment:

 We generally don't state changes in behavior caused my geos, since the
 versions aren't aligned in any way.  So you can't simply say as of GEOS
 xxx this might change because we have no idea what version of GEOS people
 will be running.  For example PostGIS 3.2 and 3.3 are both compatible with
 GEOS 3.6 and higher and sadly many people are running on 3.6-3.8 and this
 change you are talking about came in GEOS 3.12.

 I agree though the GEOS NEWs should have highlighted this reqression in
 behavior, which it looks like it didn't, so perhaps an unintentional
 regression.
