It's possible that because it's a wrapper it doesn't quite replicate
the API and Google's servers are seeing this as a scraping effort.
That's likely to result in temporary blocking and 403 responses. A map
of that size (not "resolution", please: resolution is measured in dots
per inch) needs over 200 tiles in its initial population, and Google
are unlikely to see that as reasonable outside the API.

...because it uses the native API, so it's less likely to be seen as a
scraping exercise.
