Thanks for the close review.

Let's travel back to the other end of the playing field please.

For issues like this, we must start at the beginning and work forward.

a. specification: X3D4 Committee Draft (CD)
    Geospatial Component
    https://www.web3d.org/specifications/X3Dv4Draft/ISO-IEC19775-1v4-CD/Part01/components/geospatial.html

b. Examples, both provided and new

    X3D Example Archives: Basic, Geospatial (239 X3D Models)
    https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/examples/Basic/Geospatial/index.html

c. Validation

d. Corresponding tool support

So let's fully understand the issue, and how it is implemented in practice, before fiddling with tools.

Wondering, are you thinking that "N" is illegal in every case?  Which geoSystem: GD, UTM, GC, WM?
