Agreed, although the situations in which it's not so clear are the ones
where OSM could really get an advantage over the competition.  So many times
I'm directed by Google Maps to a location quite a distance away from the
parking lot I'm trying to get to.  It's especially annoying when there are
one-way streets or divided highways which cause significant routing
differences between a route directly to the location and a route to the
correct parking lot.

I'll smile when my GPS tells me to "drive to X, park, walk across the
pedestrian bridge" etc.  Even moreso if it's done using OSM data.
