My word. I had never noticed those up arrows before! Seen it on other forums, but as "rep" where you click a little pair of scales and can leave a message.
You miss the point. Apple maps are ****. Sure, they work well in some parts of the world, but taken as a whole they are pretty awful and importantly significantly worse than the product they replaced. Given how bad they are (and they really are), it was natural for people to be pissed off, and to say they were pissed off. It didn't really help for you (and others to be fair) to come on and try to excuse/justify/minimise every issue. It just makes you look like a desperate apologist.
Maps are just not good. Apple to their credit recognised this pretty quickly, and Cook fired those who were responsible. No one doubts that Apple have the resources and the will to get their **** together and improve things, but still, apple maps has been a cock up of frankly epic proportions. Until this whole thing happened, I thought all the talk of "apple fanboys" was just those who preferred android getting their panties in a twist, but I have to concede they were correct. There are people for whom any criticism of apple, no matter how valid, has to be challenged and if possible explained away. It is tedious. I am a massive apple fan, am too locked into their ecosystem to really make moving to android an option, but having invested so much into apple I feel quite entitled to say when they have made such a massive error.
You aren't defending common sense. You are flogging a dead horse, for reasons I can't fathom. Do you have apple shares or something?
