Yes.  Which coordinates get snapped determines the result of the 
computation; this essentially codifies one implementation as the standard 
rather than building a spec which can be matched with multiple different 
implementations.  In particular, I doubt very much that we'd ever see 
hardware match this exactly.

I'm going to keep thinking about this and see whether I can't come up with 
a better spec.  I have a few ideas...
