I agree.

I have maps that show the length of the Nayarit-Zacatecas boundary as short as
one apparent quadripoint meeting of geodesics with Durango and Jalisco to as
long as approximately 30 km on what appears to be a drainage divide. The latter
version is on the federal 2006 ATLAS POR ENTIDAD FEDERATIVA. Like all Mexican
federal maps, it carries a small notation in the legend that state and municipio
boundaries are taken from other sources and that the feds are not responsible
for their exactitude.

There is little doubt of the need for the promised Comisión de Límites de las
Entidades Federativas!
