On the contrary: I say all these critiques indicate the need for a
US-specific rendering of the map that does things in a more United States-ey
way.

- Non-rectangular highway shields
- Colors that are closer to what most other US road maps
- More granular city name placement based closer on population than on the
place tag
- Support for route relations
