The article notes:
> My recommendation: if you are only going to use non-rotated rectangular maps, consider the
> doubled or offset system that matches your map orientation. For maps with Rotation, or
> non-rectangularly shaped maps, use axial/cube. Either choose to store the s coordinate (cube),
> or calculate it when needed as -q-r (axial).
