A couple of times I have spotted this kind of activity, the person was
wanting to make a "simplified" map for a particular purpose like
showing directions to a wedding or something. They didn't make the
distinction between editing map data and choosing what to display
during the rendering process. They may have thought that having a
world-wide editable map was just too crazy to work and assumed they
were in some sandbox environment where they could only make local
changes or something.
