It's hard enough to get mappers (I did 90% of the work in that area on my own), and the karlsruhe schema isn't a good fit with the use of the data, either, since people use it as a grid with a proper numbering scheme. So it's more work to input the data and to process it later. There are people already (myself included) working on rendering and routing taking advantage of numbers (without which routing is not useful here).
