Greedy pairing of points 1 to 3 and 2 to 4 is suboptimal for the given points, as the best solution pairs 1 to 4 and 2 to 3 instead. The document provides examples of exercises involving greedy algorithms and pairing points, with the first exercise showing a case where greedy pairing does not produce the optimal solution.

1 Greedy wont work in this case because greedy will make point 1 to pair with 3 and making 2 and 4 pair but the best solution is point 1 and 3 with point 4 and 2.
