The common understanding for such agreement was that an equidistant line would be drawn halfway Madeira and the Canary islands.
Biased weasel words. That's not the common understanding, that's the Spanish understanding.
Portugal argued that the Savage islands, two small islets closer to the Canaries than to Madeira archipelago, were indeed part of the latter.
Misleading. It's not on geographical grounds that Portugal exercises sovereignty over the Savage islands - and thus to that chunk of the EEZ (the given Spanish source itself naturally points out that the Portuguese sovereignty over the Savage Islands isn't questionable).
