They had no problems taking everyone’s money. Maybe companies should limit the number of sales when deploying a product tied to services they operate and need to scale.

I've been told it caches that data for areas you have been. But that doesn't make it offline friendly, obviously.

Also what you're suggesting is more dev work to make it not a live service with the associated benefits for the publisher, so they're not gonna do that. :(
