If that's your only criticism, it's probably one of the best films ever made. Which it isn't, but the point is: that's an incredibly minor detail that (i) 99% of the audience isn't aware of, (ii) two-thirds of the 1% who are aware of it will simply shrug off and (iii) has nothing to do with the characters, their relationships, their motivations and goals, how they attempt to achieve them, what obstacles they face or any of the sort of stuff that's the point of movies.
"Sleepless in Seattle" is an utter and complete joke because it's well-nigh impossible that the main character and his kid would take their tiny boat from Lake Union, through the ship canal, across Elliott Bay to Alki Point (and back) just to go to the beach (and a stalker-lady couldn't follow them by land in a car if they did).
"The Godfather II" is a joke because the dates events occur don't match what's on Vito Corleone's gravestone in "The Godfather."
etc.
