Wrong placement of chinese capital in late scenarios?

[Ciçatrix]

In the 1773 and 1795 scenarios the chinese capital seems to have moved to another province, as illustrated by these extracts from the scenario files:

1492
    city = {         fortress = { level = 1 }  
        population = 150000
        location = 649
        capital = yes 
        } 
1617
    city = {         fortress = { level = 1 }  
        population = 200000
        location = 649
        capital = yes 
        } 
1700
    city = { 
        population = 14000 
        location = 649 
        fortress = { level = 3 } 
        capital = yes 
    } 
1773
    city = { 
        population = 145000 
        location = 647 
        barrack = yes 
        fortress = { level = 4 } 
        capital = yes 
    } 
1795
    city = { 
        population = 145000 
        location = 647 
        barrack = yes 
        fortress = { level = 4 } 
        capital = yes 
    }

but as far as i caan see the chinese capital never moved in this period, as illustrated by this encyclopedia brittanica extract:

...the third Ming emperor, however, restored it as the Imperial seat of the dynasty and gave it a new name, Peking ("Northern Capital"). Peking has remained the capital of China except for a brief period (1928-49)

A bug? or just someone wanting to give china a coastal capital?

Yong Le (r. 1402-1424), the third Ming Emperor, moved the capital of China back to Beijing in order to fortify Northern China against the continuing threat of the bellicose Mongols ... Since then, with only minor interruptions, the Forbidden City has served as an exclusive seat of government.

For the benefit of anyone who wants to comment:

647;Liaoning
649;Hebei

Interesting how the population of 649;Hebei declined between 1617 and 1700 - looks like a typo to me.

But I notice in the MCH events file is one that moves their capital to 649;Hebei, but it is in 1644 and only if they own the province of course.

No one seems to have replied, so why can't someone just switch the 647 and 649 ID's in the 1773 and 1795 scenarioes?
