The problem is not with people that know what the conceptual trade-offs are and if they so want could generate a more current map. That know that they might be duplicating existing data and that will not be upset when it promptly gets zapped. Try softening the experience for a well meaning newbie of having the work you just did summarily removed right after you entered it .
Now that might be rare if you are adding stuff in the middle of nowhere where nobody is editing. But the people using maps.me are editing in areas that can easily have 1000s of edits in a week if not 10'000s, they are tourists in the busy centres of the world.
