Especially in case of paid mappers, as it allows to easily demonstrate they ignore requests from community and allows to better judge whatever sending message is useful or whatever it is repeated offender qualifying for a block.

I would guess that getting paid is typically a primary concern, with OSM data quality being a secondary concern (if present at all). In case of noticing low quality paid mapping - please, at least leave a changeset comment.
