The modern meaning of "geometry" may not change, but cutting and gluing space definitely break Euclidean geometry, as in, specifically the one defined by Euclid. You can't break a mathematical system much harder than to kill it at the axiomatic level. 4 out of 5, if not 5 out of 5, axioms do not hold if you include portals. That's pretty dead.
