        unless the polygon is planar.

        In practice, Matplotlib fills the 2D projection of the polygon. This
        gives a correct filling appearance only for planar polygons. For all
        other polygons, you'll find orientations in which the edges of the
        polygon intersect in the projection. This will lead to an incorrect
        visualization of the 3D area.

        If you need filled areas, it is recommended to create them via
        `~mpl_toolkits.mplot3d.axes3d.Axes3D.plot_trisurf`, which creates a
        triangulation and thus generates consistent surfaces.
