> Simply because every other alternative is worse than atrociously bad. Perhaps true in the past, but these days have long since come and gone. As long ago as a decade, Here Maps on Nokia Windows Phones was better. These days, Apple Maps and Google Maps are pretty solid competitors, but I prefer Apple Maps whilst driving, because it gives more detailed directions (lane warnings come earlier, verbal directions often include details such as "go past the next light, then use the left lane to turn left"). For certain areas, Google Maps is, itself, a second-rate alternative to the best option, too. For instance, in London, Citymapper is worlds better than Google Maps for navigating without a car.
