Although it's not specifically stated in the documentation (unless I
overlooked it) that only positive 2D vectors be allowed, negative numbers
are often used as well. I couldn't say why your example fails but there's
probably some limitation happening. You can use positive signs on your
numbers and get a render fine; can also use negatives on the first and last
points. Anyway, there does seem to be a limitation or even possibly a bug
but I can't judge on that, only confirm your observation.
BTW, the positive version of that should be identical to the negative
anyhow.
