> it’s probably not feasible for a global product like Google Maps to understand and encode every regional system

Does it have to encode them all? Why not start out with one then at least Google Maps is a little better for some.

Besides that, how many systems could there be? There are only something like 10,000 cities on the planet. That sounds like the kind of task Google is built to handle.
