Per-scene pedagogical coverage audit for tangent-planes against APPM 2350 §11.4, and the resulting capability additions. Sub-epic — audit-phase findings get broken out into real sub-sub-issues at plan-doc time. Pedagogically thinner per initial read; likely substantive new capability work, not just polish.
Today: sphere + draggable / aim-pickable point + tangent plane work mechanically. What's missing: the math is invisible. The scene answers "what does a tangent plane look like" but is silent on "how do you compute one."
Visible normal-vector derivation. Show the normal vector at the selected point, with some indication of how it's derived from the surface (gradient of the implicit form, or other geometric/algebraic construction).
Visible tangent-plane equation construction. Show how the tangent plane's equation is constructed from the point + normal vector — point-normal form, displacement from origin, etc.
General principle: make the math visible, not just operational.
Additional gaps surfaced during full audit at plan-doc time.
Open questions (defer to plan doc)
How much equation rendering surfaces in-world (overlay on the math object) vs. on the InfoPlinth narrative (feat(pedagogy): tangent-planes narrative (§11.4) #229)? Some belongs in-world to tie to the visual; some belongs in the narrative.
Equation readout primitive: same EquationReadout candidate flagged in the quadrics audit — extract-on-second-consumer if both want it.
Surface family: today's scene uses a sphere. Audit whether additional surfaces (graph of f(x, y), parametric, level surface) are in scope for v1.0 or deferred to v1.x.
Composition
Paired with the tangent-planes narrative (#229). These two should be planned together; the capability additions here are exactly what the narrative will reference.
Sub-issue of #233.
