The South Pole is a particularly interesting case. Clearly the Pole itself is 90 South and the choice of longitude is arbitrary there. However, Amundsen-Scott station, which is a hundred odd metres away, happens to be at ~140 E (89.997553 S!) and due to the map projection it appears as if it's in a totally different place.
It would be interesting to see an interactive version with a free choice of meridians.
