Because a subscription is definitely a viable alternative.
If it's not viable for you, that's a you problem.
You don't need to charge a subscription for offline maps. That defeats the whole purpose of offline maps.
Edit: I could understand if it was a one time purchase, but as it's a subscription, that's the dumbest thing I've seen for an "offline maps app"
You can pay a one time fee for Maps+.
I didn't see that option when I looked.
Edit: I see it now, but I believe it's too expensive for an app that is supposed to give you directions.
That's your choice as a consumer.
