genetics - Why are some SNPs assigned to the wrong position or even chromsome -


when lifting genome wide data came across issue, rs-numbers have merged. leads me point, snp must have been misassigned wrong position once (or wrong chromosome). after time, laboratories must have realized mistake , corrected it. in case old rs-number retracted , "old" rs number used snp. ok, far good. question concerns question, technical issues or problems can cause such misaligment:

which can technical reasons, snp assigned wrong position (or chromosome)? how possible @ all?
