The Death Mountain Problem

there is another reason, it could be due to tectonic movement, and death mountain could be on a fault line.

Now, it would seem to me that that's a pretty clear reference to Spectacle Rock, which is a rather regular feature of Death Mountain. Here's the problem. If Dragon Roost Island is Death Mountain (as it is hinted at), then one would assume that this Spectacle Island would be pretty close to it. Only, it's not. The two islands are separated by two whole squares of sea. Since the chart says that each square is 1000, and the Japanese use the metric system, I'd say its a fair assumption that each square is a kilometer. This being the case, how did Spectacle Rock get three kilometers away from its home?

Dude, 2k is not that far. I'm betting that it's being held up by another part of the mountian underwater.
Trust me, this is way more likely than Spectacle Rock being lost from Death Mountian. I mean, come on, Specatle Rock is hooked to Death Mountian.
