Compacted cell sets

H3 compact() collapses a full set of same-resolution children into their common parent wherever complete; consumers unaware of compaction assume single-resolution set operations.

Class

Case to account for

Affects

2 conversions

Detection

Resolutions vary across the set and no explicit compaction flag/marker is attached.

Mitigation

Tag delivered sets as compact vs. uniform explicitly

uncompact() to a target resolution before any comparison, union, or platform delivery that assumes uniform resolution
