Yeah but different teams, different goals. With this news, I give it a year or two before Waze is shut down and only a few Waze features are added to Maps. Nothing good will come from this.

Yes, I know. And when that happened, there was a sharp drop in quality in Google Maps as they tried to add Waze features into Google Maps. I can imagine the same drop in quality in Waze if Google starts doing Google things to it.
