Note: If you don't want to deal with stuff like this, I recommend you download and use it from F-Droid client or Accrescent AppStore.
Update: The app returned to the App Store.
It's highly unlikely that this app even comes up on the radar insofar as competing with Google Maps.
The answer is probably more mundane - an automated system made an incorrect call. It keeps happening when it comes to these Play Store app reviews.
Or some troll decided it would be funny to report it.
Most likely scenario in my opinion too.
Indeed. "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"—or, in this case, an unaudited automated process. Now, I'm sure the fact that it competes with one of their products meant that they were in no particular hurry to address the issue, but I'm sure the original failure was process related, not anti-competitive practices.
Or maybe an automated system flagged it and an underpaid and overworked employee in a third world country reviewed it.
