I guess you miseed where the "simplified" polygons cut-off large chunks of 
the islands. If a warning systems used those coordinates on parts of the 
islands (such as WEA cell towers), it would have missed several sections 
of the islands.

Sometimes implementations of good ideas are badly done.

Ignoring problems doesn't fix them.
