It's what lat/lon should be uploaded to OSM so it's consistent world
wide, you don't need to support all sorts of weird and wonderful local
datums, even if there is drift due to continental drift etc.

Australia is moving NNE about 7cm per year on average, but different
parts of the country are moving at different rates.

Then there was a quake in New Zealand last year and the southern part
moved 30cm closer to Australia, but the northern part hardly moved.
