Of course they do represent that. It's the same math as in my example above there. It's just a handy way for those with map contacts on to skip all the triangle drawing, but if you plot out the intercept using the above methods or MOBO or whatever your preferred method, you'll end up with the same location on the map.

If you find it "ridiculous" just turn off map contacts.
