I simply don't think you understand what people are willing to do. I know many people who would play Wikipedia Jenga - you edit Wikipedia with bigger and more ridiculous edits and the person who gets the article reverted is the "loser". It's not ridiculous to assume that they could be playing a similar game with OSM, especially if they viewed it as "competitor". I don't believe Google is stupid enough to advocate vandalizing an opponent's products.
