I have worked with them, and they suffer from exactly this issue - what is a ‘range’. We can enter anything we want in atlases, checklists etc, but unresolved is what should we enter ?
Discussed in more detail here https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/what-should-represent-a-range-for-a-species-in-inaturalist/399 although like other topics it wandered in different directions than the original discussion.
