+/**
+ * A old implementation of the symmetry plane estimator taken from the old FIDENTS.
+ * Conceptually, it is similar to the {@link SymmetryEstimatorRobustMesh}.
+ * It also uses Gaussian curvature and normal vectors to prune candidate planes 
+ * and measure their quality. But some additional criteria are used as well. 
+ * Also, the calculation of "votes" differs.
+ * This implementation has the following properties:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>Fast. A bit faster than the new robust algorithms of {@link SymmetryEstimatorRobust}
+ * and much faster that the {@link SymmetryEstimatorRobustMesh}.</li>
+ * <li>Best candidate planes are chosen based on the similarity of Gauss curvatures 
+ * on both sides of the plane, inverse direction of normal vectors, 
+ * and the distance of plane from centroid.</li>
+ * <li>Because the space of candidate planes is roughly approximated (several true-false rules), 
+ * the final symmetry plane is computed by averaging best candidates (candidates with the most votes).</li>
+ * <li>Best results are achieved with Uniform Grid sampling with 200-300 points and averaging turn on.</li>
+ * <li>Should return reasonable results also for incomplete faces (was not tested).</li>
+ * </ul>
+ * <p>
+ * This visitor <b>is not thread-safe</b>, i.e., a single instance of the visitor 
+ * cannot be used to inspect multiple meshes simultaneously  (sequential inspection is okay). 
+ * It because the underlying visitors may not be thread-safe.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * The main symmetry plane computation is performed by the {@link #getSymmetryPlane()} method,
+ * not the {@link #visitMeshFacet(cz.fidentis.analyst.mesh.core.MeshFacet)}.
+ * </p>
