We show the (already known) fact that Randall-Sundrum scenarious although compatible with a ${\mathbb{Z}}_2$ orbifold symmetry cannot hold regularity of the fields at the orbifold planes in the absence of boundary actions and respective jumps of the fields. This makes the models mathematical inconsistence and invalidate the inclusion of such models in a higher dimensional theory such as string theory. For completeness we point out some directions already in the literature and in progress.
