It's to be remembered that young Christopher did the original Map in a tearing hurry, working 24 hours straight to meet a publishers' deadline: and so it's understandable if Himling was simply a detail he left out. It's noteworthy that the "Unfinished Tales" map differs from the first (aside from scale) only in the addition of the "Baynes" nomenclature, and the island- which leads me to believe CT considered its omission from his first version to have been a careless omission which needed rectifying.
