It is put in ther by Skydemon to highlight a change in real restrictions. In reality, it is more of a nuisance than a help. Please stop doing this. If you for some reason absolutely must do it, make it the same size and shape as the area you want to mark out!!

Sometimes a country will publish information about a restriction in both a NOTAM and a SUP to the AIP. We don't know when this happens, and in this case, you get both. Since you've brought it to my attention I've hidden the NOTAM, as in this case, it's unnecessary. Since restriction areas and NOTAMS look very similar initially I didn't realise they were different and the NOTAMS could be hidden. The forum swiftly corrected me on this misunderstanding, thank you. One suggestion to make the difference more obvious: Make the NOTAMS a very different color like light blue.
