Yes, we've discussed this a bunch. The DJI Flysafe database is NOT meant to be a replica of FAA classified airspace. They don't claim it is, and it is not. It is meant to keep pilots out of "trouble". Remember, they deal with tons of countries with different airspace regulations, and different pilot certifications.
DJI's airport zones are patterned after an international standard. If you wants some "fun" reading, start at page 34 of this document, https://www.icao.int/APAC/Meetings/2015%20WAWG1/an14_1ed_1951.pdf
Yes, it is a total pain for those of us in the US to get FAA approval and then get DJI approval, and in some cases you only need one or the other. But if you plan your flights, neither one of those should come as a surprise as they are both well documented.
In summary, I'm not saying anyone should "like it". I'm saying calling it "incorrect" is not the right thing. It's not a replica of FAA controlled airspace.
