Can we finally get rid of obsolete worldmap tiles?

Go to the map in any viewer (except the CoolVL Viewer which does NOT show tiles for invalid regions). Type something like Pompeii and see how ancient map tiles are still there. For sims long gone. Sims that have been moved. Etc.
Ghost map tiles have existed from the day we moved into the cloud. Can we finally get rid of them?

I fully support it ... I have literally hundreds of ghosted regions sitting around. I once was told it's because the grid map has been scripted back in 2002 or something and is not really compatible with Amazon servers but if that's the case, how about creating something new from scratch?

YES, in my humble dwagony opinion: get rid of NO LONGER EXISTING map tiles. If they are obsolete and no longer there... why should they be on the CURRENT map?
(It's nice to be asked BTW; that is appreciated. But this one seems kind of obvious.)
The only real alternative is to have an "archival map" option to show history... but how many lands have been over-written by new lands over the years? And of what actual value is such out-of-date history? One does not drive down a highway with their eyes constantly focused on the rear-view mirror. ;D
