I don't konw the rhyme/reason but it looks like it was removed (w/o 
any deprecation first i guess) as part of LUCENE-7123 in commit: 
ce3114233bdc45e71a315cb6ece64475d2d6b1d4

in that commit, existing callers in the lucene code base were changed to 
use "2 * GeoProjectionUtils.SEMIMAJOR_AXIS"

(once the jira outage is over you might find more info in the comments of 
that issue)

: Hi.
: 
: I don't know why, but we have some kind of esoteric logic in our own
: code to simplify a circle on the Earth to a bounding box, clearly
: something to do with computing geo queries.
: 
:     double lonMin = -180.0, lonMax = 180.0;
:     if (!closeToPole(latMin, latMax)) {
:        double D = SloppyMath.earthDiameter(lat);
:         double d = D * Math.sin((90.0 - lat) * Math.PI / 180.0); //
: diameter of a disk formed by parallel at latitude = lat
:        double kmPerLonDeg = Math.PI * d / 360.0;
:         double distanceInLonDeg = distanceKm / kmPerLonDeg;
:        lonMin = lon - distanceInLonDeg;
:         lonMax = lon + distanceInLonDeg;
:     }
: 
: This SloppyMath.earthDiameter(latitude) method appears to be gone in
: v6.3.0 but I don't see any mention of a replacement in the changelog.
: Is there a replacement? Do I just slot in a constant and hope that
: nobody notices? I mean, if the maths are supposed to be "sloppy"... :D
