Many moons ago (around 200 or so) Air France executed a similar departure. This was back when the PORPA fix was published on the SID plate as some radial (lets say 100) and 2nm SMT. If you turn at 2nm SMT without looking at the radial you are right where Polar turned. At least they (AF) had a very weak/lame excuse. Be kinda hard to explain with a -8 database. Mind you there is a PORPA intersection in Argentina hmmm.
