I have cancelled a trip to survey some lonely country lanes after someone else remotely traced them. Had I gone, the map would have gained POIs instead of just a line. But it scarcely seemed worth the trip for what might have been a couple of postboxes and pub, without having the satisfaction of mapping the roads, too, especially when there is so much else left to map. But maybe I'm being silly.
To each, his own, I suppose. It wouldn't stop (and hasn't stopped) me, but I live in a place (California) that has most of its roads already present, though badly mis-aligned in places. So, I guess I take my trips to add value in terms of those POIs, road characteristics (lanes, speed limits, condition), turn-restrictions, etc. Not to mention, it's been fun going out there and seeing places I've never been.
