We added the red arrow to point out where the Apple Store should be on the map.
While perusing through our official Macworld Expo documents, we noticed some interesting peculiarities about the official area map. The map showcases points of reference, including San Francisco's piers, hotels and various tourist traps. However, we noticed that the map actually omitted a very fundamental place of interest for Macworld attendees--the Apple Store.
There are actually three Apple Stores in San Francisco: one in the Stonestown Mall on the west side of the city, one on Chestnut Street, and one downtown on Stockton Street. We've provided a photo of the immediate area around the Moscone Center to prove that the closest Apple Store wasn't even referenced.
So, could this be a big slap in Apple's face for backing out of the Macworld Expo this year? Or was this just a big mistake on IDG's part?

Must we ennoble every potential/perceived offense?
"Unconditional forgiveness is preferable to lingering probation."
In other words, ignore the "digs". Then they'll be less valuable and eventually less prevalent.

OOh! OOh! Slap in the face! Slap in the face!
