Subjectivity and Interpretation.
If Jacob is right, DE 1.0 needs an errata even before 2.0 comes out.
The circle was meant to be the same for both specs.

example is incorrect. It is also different than the CAP format for a
circle, and any messages using the CAP format for circle in DE messages
are incorrect. The DE definition for polygon is murkier as it does not
clearly define the delimiter for the lat,lon pairs and whether there is
to be any space between these commas.
