It's been a while since I made this sample file.

The rectangular surfaces default to being relative to zone origin, as you
can see from the .eio file:

! <SurfaceGeometry>,Starting Corner,Vertex Input
Direction,Coordinate System,Daylight Reference Point Coordinate
System,Rectangular (Simple) Surface Coordinate System
 Surface
Geometry,UpperLeftCorner,Counterclockwise,WorldCoordinateSystem,RelativeCoordinateSystem,RelativeToZoneOrigin

I will make the SurfaceGeomtry object so it is explicit to alleviate
confusion.
