Haven't read any of the other posts yet, but I would say that I would
probably prefer it to be a single auction.

Reading R2004, it looks like it was *supposed* to be a single auction?
That's definitely not how the announcement below reads, and not how
people have been bidding, so I don't know what actually happened.
(R2004 only allows 1 auction to be started each week).
I'm also looking for anything that says the Cartographer CAN transfer
land in any circumstances, and all I'm finding is SHALLs. (is there
a "SHALL implies CAN" somewhere?)

Oops, you're right. You know, it seems pretty likely that those ones
just never began in the first place.

These are independent auctions so only the incorrect ones were just
terminated I think? (Auctions 1,3,4).

I agree with G.'s interpretation. I believe that Rule 2549's statement
that "An Auction also CANNOT be initiated unless the Auctioneer is
able to give away each item in each of the Auction's lots" is
applicable, given that the announced items do not in fact exist. Just
in case, I terminate the ongoing land auction, because some of the
lots are nonexistent and therefore "the Auctioneer of that Auction
cannot transfer any item included in a lot in that Auction" (Rule
2552).

My interpretation:
You describe a particular lot as a "white land unit at XXXX". You do not have
a "white land unit at XXXX" to transfer, so anyone can terminate the auction.
If no one terminates it, I'm not sure whether you can satisfy your obligation
to transfer by transferring a black land unit at XXXX, or not.
(oh, just out of curiosity where does it say you CAN transfer particular
land units? That wording of that would play into what you can or cannot
satisfy).

I'd say that these data are less relevant than the coordinates of the land
units, so it would not invalidate it. But that may just be me but wanting
to do work to fix it.

Wait, I just looked it up (in your own report) and:
AUCTION 1: The lot is the white land unit at (+1, +2) <-- actually black
AUCTION 2: The lot is the white land unit at (+1, +3)
AUCTION 3: The lot is the white land unit at (+2, 0) <-- actually black
AUCTION 4: The lot is the black land unit at (+2, +1) <-- actually white
AUCTION 5: The lot is the black land unit at (+2, +2)
Gasp! It cannot be! Is it a... SCAM?!?!
More seriously, does it make the auction initiation invalid?

This is the second real land auction.
There are currently 5 public, unpreserved, non-aether land units in
existence. All 5 are put up for auction.
For the following 5 auctions, I am the announcer, Agora is the
auctioneer,
and the minimum bid is 1 coin:
AUCTION 1: The lot is the white land unit at (+1, +2)
AUCTION 2: The lot is the white land unit at (+1, +3)
AUCTION 3: The lot is the white land unit at (+2, 0)
AUCTION 4: The lot is the black land unit at (+2, +1)
AUCTION 5: The lot is the black land unit at (+2, +2)
