Yeah, and then the origin should be moved to somewhere on the surface of the earth, instead of it's core.

The map is relative to one location. You don’t want to see « rocks » and « rocks » for any distance smaller than 6000km, you want to see everyday objects. So you want the origin to be on earth surface
