    Ok, so here we go again!

    "Major" changes:

    WEST:

    - Plates 13/12 got the boundary fixed to make sense with nș5, and nș13 got a new Euler pole.

    - Plate 5: corrected the western boundary to be 100% divergent.

    - old Plate 22: got a major overhaul since it didn't fit once I cut nș5's section with 11. That area is a bit awkward because you can see the square like shape resulting from cutting that bit from nș5, so it looks a bit off to me, but I can live with it as long as the micro-plates it contains (24-27) work fine.

    - Plate 17: boundaries fixed and new Euler pole position.

    - new Plate 22: created to fix boundary btw nș17 and 11 so it's not convergent + divergent.


    EAST:

    - old plate 24 is gone because nș4 got a new Euler pole so the micro-plate wasn't needed there.

    - Plate 4 also got an opposite curvature with nș14.

    - Plate 18 also got a new Euler pole and a bit more of surface so its curvature matches nș4's.

    - Plate 10 now has an outward curvature with 15.


    I think that's all.

    Well, now plate 5's boundary with 14 is a transform one, and so it's most of it on 5 with 15, except for a little bit on the west where the little bump is, which in stereographic projection, if I try to visualize the rotation, looks convergent.

    So, how's it looking? Anything to fix?
