Andreas Guelzow commented on OFFICE-3444:
------------------------------------------
The schema currently describes the coordinates as lengths (positive, negative or 0). These lengths always carry a unit.
So units of the coordinate sytem really don't matter. What we need to know is the origin, the direction of the positive x-axis, the direction of the positive y-axis. If we use the top left corner of a surrounding element, we surely want a left-handed coordinate sysem with a horizontal (left-to-right) x-axis, and a vertical (top to bottom) y-axis.
> 18.3.9 coordinate should not be a tuple

> 18.3.9 has been changed from "Like a length, except that the physical length denotes a certain point." to "A tuple of numeric values that defines a position."
> I don't think it makes sense to have a coordinate to be "a tuple". Shouldn't it just be a "A numeric value that describes a position"?
