And many runways are around 45m wide - so 20m accuracy puts a wheel on the grass in most airliners
You wouldn't use it to place you on the runway, you'd use it so the aeroplane knew which intersection you're going from. But it doesn't hold water because you want the aeroplane to know what intersection you're using before you get there.
