Cause they’ve never heard of those and Google is preinstalled.
Probably, or they didn’t plan ahead so went with what they had
And Google doesn’t exactly say their maps are incomplete or are wrong, and if you are going someplace you absolutely need accurate maps, you should use something else. They just say they are best in class map service, and there is little to disprove that… until the worst happens.
