What do you mean by "real" shape? This is the real shape in the (equirectangular) SHIII world. Do you think that real continents as seen from the space look the same as on a map?

Jokes apart, any other shape would cause a misalignment of the islands relative to the in-game coordinate system both in terms of latitude/longitude and KM quadrant and, due to the small size of the two island and the low resolution of SHIII terrain masks, the difference in terms of "good shape" would be hardly detectable anyway
