                     Interpolation is a continuous motion along a helical path, made of equal transforms if discretized.
                     t = 0.0 - return self. t = 1.0 - return placement2. t can also be outside of 0..1 range, for extrapolation.
                     If quaternions of rotations of the two placements differ in sign, the interpolation will
