/**
 * Returns the value of a vertex attribute
 *
 * @remarks
 * It takes 3 arguments.
 *
 * points(<input_index_or_node_path\>, <attrib_name\>, <point_index\>)
 *
 * - **<input_index_or_node_path\>** is a number or a string
 * - **<attrib_name\>** is a string, the name of the attribute
 * - **<point_index\>** index of the point to fetch
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 * - `point(0, 'position', 0)` - returns the position of the first point of the first input, as a THREE.Vector3
 *
