Sure I don't expect Larian to handcraft 10K or more cloth maps for the CEs, but I'd rather not have something so perfect, clean, smooth and modern that it doesn't look like an old map but rather like a printed handkerchied someone would use to clean their glasses.
Well, to me that sounds more like an issue of design, not of quality. Something can be designed to look old and handcrafted and still have good quality.

Besides, you're free to add all the coffee stains you want, drag it through the mud or have your kids or pet play with it to achieve that worn look you are after. If the quality is right, you'll be fine. But if it already falls to pieces just from looking at it ...
