Hi!

First thanks for great library!

I noticed a strange thing while using it: the centroids calculated by Turf differ from these added to US Census tiger shapefiles. In the shapefiles every feature has properties and there are centroid coordinates there - INTPTLAT and INTPTLON.

Why do they differ and which ones are more correct?

Here is an example: https://gist.github.com/svenvarkel/710bbf84486d1046fd28ad4303f436e6
