I daresay if every navigator sought independet proof that everything marked 
on a chart was what they thought, before actually moving the vessel, the 
entire oceans would be empty of ships.  What strikes me about this, is that 
in the MN or RN, its a case of "one strike and you're out".  Not many fields 
of endeavour are like that, eg, banking, politics, ....
