Does anyone know why these kind of errors are so common? I look back over my old maps, some done as a child (ten, if not earlier) and even when my spelling is terrible and my drawing crude(r than now), the worst things I kind find are an inland lake with no outflow that I think I hadn't planned on being salt water and perhaps a tendency (that has not left) to somewhat exaggerate the meandering of my rivers. Is it just people trying to make maps without any real familiarity with them or something else? I'm inclined to think there is more involved, since these errors seem so common, while I am not seeing such frequent, obvious errors in other factors.
