An inconsistency in an OGC specification!?!?!?
Could be. Fact remains, they do provide examples of mixed dimensional
inputs to the predicates, and they are the most confusing examples
imaginable, since what does it mean for polygons (or points) to "cross"? Or
for points to "overlap" vs "intersect".
If you're looking for precisely defined semantics of interaction, go with
the Relate() functions and DE9IM patterns, I'd recommend.
