Unless you live on one of those islands (as I do) and you want OSM maps 
to be accurate about which driveways you can make a right-hand turn 
into.  And that makes quite a huge difference to the suggested route to 
my place from a couple of kilometres away.

Until Nearmap, I used the position-averaging-over-time function on my 
Garmin to get the islands accurate.
