There's no reason to think a GPS's electronic chart is any more or less accurate than a printed chart.
Years ago (and probably still) people would think a fact was true just because they read it on the internet. The same applies to GPS charts; people believe they are accurate because they are electronic. GPS charts have no more guarantee of accuracy than a printed chart. And as many have mentioned above, a printed chart will never fail because of dead batteries.
