Moving Map Display

Thanks for the explanations so far. This is probably a stupid question but looking at the picture link from slast's post it seems that the map movement was up and down ( north/south) while the pointer/marker could track sideways (W/E). What happened if you were flying a sector with a significant W-E component? Was the map scale adjusted to allow for the travel limitattions of the marker. If this was the case how positionally accurate would some of the longer W-E sectors be, say London - Moscow (if the Trident operated this route).
