    unlikely that all of them would still be out-of-sync with upstream

    It’s not like we all have one live server that ingests source changes and the customers will see it immediately. There is a massively delay, release schedules, etc.

    Sure looks to me like Google made the change before the basemaps were updated

    But yea, you could be right on this specific point

      Good! Sounds like there’s plenty of time built in to the system for impact analysis, change management, QA, and the like, to avoid pushing unnecessary updates that end up pissing everyone off.

        Who gets to determine if they’re unnecessary updates?
