I think a lot of people are using the stylized Map views over the satellite views. I’m my experience, those are pretty good for showing where things are, maybe if not topographically accurate.

You've got a point. If it's just about showing things on a map, OSM will do. When it comes to routing or geocoding, you need quality, consistency and accuracy. And that is only offered by map makers like Here or TomTom. Both run their own Maps API platforms.
