This is an excellent framework! I've been using a similar approach for a long time without having a good name for it. Directionally correct to me means it's the best direction to move forward in out of all directions currently available. It also means that the only alternative is not moving at all (which by the way is completely valid in some circumstances - same vector with a velocity of 0). Doesn't surprise me we've come to similar conclusions given our similar backgrounds!

Thanks for your feedback Eli. You know something is a truth when you discover it yourself, then you see other people using the same tooling.
Your cruise missile example matches on from my early experience in the Navy. Well put.
Nice. Thanks Gary.
