Ok rather than beat around the bush and talking about whether we should discuss this in thread or not (when we all seem to agree we should anyway), I'm just gonna explain the problem.
Long story short, all 4 of the Dronias have the route 9 exit in the wrong place. According to the region map, that exit should be on the left side of the map right next to the route 7 exit. 3 of them have the exit on the right side, while one has it in the centre.
However, the mappers believed that it simply was an awkward place for the exit and conflicted with the flow of the designs.
They were given gates, not only to make the transition into a dense city easier, but so that it could be pocket dimensioned, solving the awkward exit dilemma.
However, in official games, even when a city is gated it lines up with the rest. Though honestly there is no reason to follow that other than "GF does it" so that point is fairly moot. The player will not even be aware.
Theres some other arguments going on about it, but it's way too fucking much that I can't even fathom. What i've posted is the topic is all about.
