The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/datatype-geometric.html
Description:

I think that the information on points should contain a sentence like this:
"Order is Longitude, Latitude - so if you plot it as the map, it is (x,
y)."

Well, as I remember, our geometric types don't know anything about
longitude or latitude.  PostGIS does handle this, but it is a separate
project team.
