The collection 𝓤 of all relative interiors of nonempty convex faces of a convex set C
in ℝⁿ.

A singleton in ℝⁿ is relatively open.
If two elements of faceRelativeInteriors meet, then they are equal.
Membership in FaceOf.sInf means lying in C and every face in S.
Any relatively open convex subset of C is contained in a member of faceRelativeInteriors.
The union of faceRelativeInteriors is the ambient convex set.
Elements of faceRelativeInteriors are maximal relatively open convex subsets of C.
Theorem 18.2. Let C be a non-empty convex set, and let 𝓤 be the collection of all relative
interiors of non-empty faces of C. Then 𝓤 is a partition of C (pairwise disjoint with union
equal to C). Every relatively open convex subset of C is contained in some element of 𝓤, and
the sets in 𝓤 are the maximal relatively open convex subsets of C.
The affine span of a segment is the line through its endpoints.
Points in an open segment lie in the relative interior of the closed segment.
Solve for y from two lineMap relations by eliminating the middle point.
Solve for x from two lineMap relations by substituting the computed y.
If x is between y and u, and y is between x and v, then both lie between u and v.
From a segment whose relative interior contains x,y, build a relatively open convex subset.
From a relatively open convex D, extend past x and y to get a segment in C.
Text 18.2.1. Let C be a convex set and let x, y be two distinct points in C. The
following two conditions are equivalent:
(1) There exists a relatively open convex subset D ⊆ C such that x ∈ D and y ∈ D.
(2) There exists a line segment S ⊆ C such that both x and y belong to the relative
interior of S (i.e. x, y ∈ ri(S)).
If a direction recedes in both C and closure C', it recedes in the face C'.
