This is expected -- tol.vert is ignored because it should be tol.ver
(see docs).

The reason why you don't (can't!) get a warning is that it get absorbed
by the ... , which just passes on things not known (and hence accepts
anything).

Apparently geoR does not accept 3D coordinates, so I am left with (?) gstat.  I have trouble understanding and applying the 5-parameter version of anis in gstat's vgm(), so I thought I would try generating one direction at a time, as below with a data frame called "han":
