So what?

Er, that's a government function.


The fact that an "arms length" "agency" has got something wrong
tells me a number of things, mostly about "Next Steps".

You're dodging the issue that there is no single official way of
defining locations and areas. Is the Strathclyde Fire and Rescue
service "wrong" because there is no local authority of that name ?
Dividing Scotland into counties for land registration purposes
predates any modern national government arrangements.
