This is way better, specially L507. Let me try to improve a bit L524 (and see now, if I understand it correctly).
Each input simple feature object with only one element (first column) is transformed directly into another geometry type.
--->
When a simple feature object with just one element is used in input it is transformed directly into another geometry type.
And L527
You can see that, for example, when you cast a multipoint consisting of five pairs of coordinates into a point.

Correct ?

To keep up momentum I'm going to merge this. We can see how it looks in the updated text and then decide if it fixes the issue. Any further comments welcome @defuneste. I think the table still could be explained better in terms of exactly what the inputs in the first column are. Any ideas on that? Far out idea is to create a small plot representing each input... |

I think this could be explained more clearly.

https://github.com/Robinlovelace/geocompr/blob/main/05-geometry-operations.Rmd#L524-L527 This seems good to me and showed that I misunderstood the first version! I do not see how we can improve the table. An exercise on it could be an option but E6 is already a bit on it. |
