    Not when they accidentally install apps. Then just a useless install and uninstall that helps neither Google nor the user.

      I noticed Google also changed Maps recently for multi-stop directions so it only calculates routes once you’ve added all the stops instead of after adding each stop. The only rationale I could think of for doing that would be to reduce computation costs.

      Seems like they’re going around and trimming compute and network costs wherever they can without significantly impacting user experience.
