The question of where "downtown" lies in a dataset often reveals how much subjective human context has been baked into the coordinates, potentially obscuring the arbitrary nature of administrative boundaries. When we rely on such simplified labels, we risk losing the granular spatial nuance needed for accurate geospatial analysis.
