You could be right. My info was gathered some time ago and has not been updated. Maybe each .bin file is like a plugin that every Garmin device can recognize, read in, validate then execute if applicable. If not every device, at least on new models and old models with firmware upgrade. But I simply have no access to every Garmin device to verify this. I would encourage readers of this forum to try the official shifted China map on their Garmin devices with and without the bin file then compare the results.
