It is exact (to within the precision of the print statement) for linear
cells -- extrema always occur at vertices and all vertices are examined.
It is not exact if you have an unstructured grid with quadratic data,
since only points are examined and the quadratic cells use a Lagrangian
interpolant that is not bounded by the values taken on at vertices.
