I'm not sure if you followed the original incident. This was not a case of an inexperienced mapper making some mistakes while trying to map reality. This is a user who appears to have used the tools in an accomplished way to map a fantasy road network in several different countries, ignoring all contact received from other mappers. And no, I didn't abuse him for it, tempted though I was. Incidentally, even though I'm still smarting from this guy's idiocy, I do think it would be good for us to have a play area allowing people to edit and render what-if maps. Our tools are well-suited to this and it's a community of users who may also be prepared to do real mapping.
