That doesn't use Directions to calculate travel charges, it does point-
in-polygon analysis of developer supplied areas.  i.e. it doesn't use
any Google content as a basis to calculate charges.  Might well be an
alternative approach for fuss.

Yup, both those provide a public facing free service, and estimate a
charge based on Google content.
In neither case do the providers use free Google content in their
_internal_ business processes e.g. billing, which seems to me to be
what the terms are driving at.

I would say fuss' 1st case, which specifys billing, falls foul of
10.9(c) " ... similar enterprise applications  ..."

I'm NOT a lawyer and not convinced it is forbidden, but I think there
is enough fuel there to fire doubts.   Advice is as before, consult a
real lawyer.

Some other consideration here -
