    • Switch a WebGL2 context to first-vertex flat sampling, if it can.

      Idempotent and failure-tolerant by design: called once per PickingSystem, on a context that may be WebGPU (no-op), may lack the extension (no-op), or may be a unit-test double (no-op). A missing extension is normal, not an error — hence log.info rather than a warning. Both arms log exactly once per session, which is what makes a pick-id divergence diagnosable from a console dump alone.

      Takes the RENDERER rather than its context so that every duck-type lives here: getContext itself is absent on the partial renderer doubles the picking-system unit tests construct, so a call site that dereferenced it would throw before reaching any of the guards below.

      Parameters

      • renderer: unknown

        The renderer, or anything shaped unlike one.

      Returns boolean

      true when the convention was switched, false when left at the platform default. Returned rather than inferred so a test can assert both arms.
