 ## Quantity points
 
 The quantity point specifies an absolute quantity with respect to an origin.
+If no origin is provided explicitly, an implicit one will be provided by the library.
+
 Together with quantities, they model [The Affine Space](../users_guide/framework_basics/the_affine_space.md).
 
 Quantity points should be used in all places where adding two values is meaningless
