Enter the obligatory post about the motives of the author:
Quote:
The prime motive was the desire of a tale-teller to try his hand at a really long story that would hold the attention of the readers, amuse them, delight them, and at times maybe excite them or deeply move them. -Foreward to Lord of the Rings

Geometry, of any kind, never amused me and trying to follow what the heck is going on does not sound delightful.
But I am glad you've found something that amuses, delights, excites and moves you in Tolkien's really long story.
