Nevermind, I figured it out.

I now grok the map location editing process. Mwhahahah.

Hate that huge harbor on Guadalcanal? "delete." Poof!

You can delete an entry (as you apparently figured out) and you can turn it into a comment. Just open the .mis file with a text editor and add a colon to each of the lines in the entry (just to be sure - I don't know which it is safe to edit).

Also, of course, you can temporarily remove a location by making it disappear a moment after appearing (for example making it appear on 1st of February, 00:00, and having it vanish on the same date, on 00:01, or even 00:00). Lots of possibilities
