Because Plugshare is closed source, locked down and a bizarre cesspool of uncurated garbage with zealously curated but misleading or straight up wrong information.
For example, in Australia, the largest supercharger networks are Tesla and Evie. For reasons I won't even pretend to understand, Plugshare refuses to allow either name in their labels, so if a town has both, they're called "Town (1)" and "Town (2)" at random. Not only does this make searching a pain, but people just select whichever pin happens to be on top and then submit their charging reports for the wrong charger. Gar! Typical example:
"Oliver's Gundagai (1)" https://www.plugshare.com/location/205861 https://www.plugshare.com/location/205861 (Chargefox)
"Oliver's Gundagai (2)" https://www.plugshare.com/location/76887 https://www.plugshare.com/location/76887 (Tesla)
