In my recent changes, I added tests that failed with the old
make-ball-generator, and corrected make-ball-generator, which now passes
the tests.

make-sphere-generator (which, in 2020, you split into two, including
make-ellipsoid-generator) was failing some informal tests I cooked up in
August 2020, which you indeed fixed in 2020.  My recent changes added
more fine-grained argument error checking and more statistically
justified versions of my informal 2020 tests that people might be able
to use in independent implementations.
