Google simply rely on registered Google account owners to provide more accurate information on their maps, and location accuracy.
Much of Google mapping information is pretty "hairy", and based on visual interpretation from aerial photos by Google employees in the U.S.
I do my best to correct glaring Google errors, where I come across them - but trying to actually get through to Google employees that their mapping needs correction can be difficult.
As Boobook says, Googles primary aim is selling personal data and information - that's how the company rapidly got to $700B+ in corporate value.
Regardless, Google provide a valuable mapping service which is still largely free of charges. As the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for".
