Thank you!! Yeah I've never used OSM render, it is just the only place I had been able to find discussion about the inaccuracies of the projection. It also exists in all online slippy maps I've used from the latest OpenLayers to the latest Google Maps. Thanks again!

Thank you, however that is not related to the issues I'm discussing.
