If a platform is open source, then you can make whatever custom changes you personally need and make it work for your particularly scenario. Downloadable maps, archivable maps, platform independent maps, faster loading maps, more accurate maps, more niche data centric maps, and fail-safe maps are all examples of maps that a particular person needs in a particular setting at a particular time. It is not software for the masses, just software for the massive number of little things you could possibly need.
