One part of the rationale, perhaps. I agree that "because we have a GOA account for it" is a bit backwards. That said, there are other good reasons to include Maps. It is a handy application to have in the default install, and useful as a utility, in the same way as a dictionary, Clocks or Weather. From GNOME 3.16, Maps has two-way integration with Contacts - you can search for contacts from within Maps, and Contacts includes small maps for addresses (which act as a link to Maps). So, key arguments: it's useful, in a good state, actively developed, and is increasingly integrated with the rest of the core utilities.
