Research direction

The issue proposes estimating highest-zoom point density by sampling gaps between points instead of using absolute density or a full CDF calculation. No files, tests, or entry points are named; first define the sampling method and its expected output, then verify that the resulting estimate meets the intended density behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description
