Sorry, I misplaced a question mark.

It’s a responsible move to extinguish a cultural tie to the land?

I am not even sure what you mean by that.

How does one extinguish a spiritual tie?

What is a cultural tie to the land, when people are not living there or do not even know they own it?

Multiple, contested titles, make for lots of courtroom proceedings.

There does not appear to be any question that Zuckerberg purchased the land legally from a willing seller/sellers.

I have seen thousands and thousands of acres lie fallow because the titles are unclear.

Natives could use these “Cultural Ties” to hold up clear title to the land. I bet that happens and that is why Zuckerberg made this move.
