Ok, it's getting sad now - When will the scanner get a new OSM visual update?

It's been since December of 2017 and no timeline or commitment to updating the scanner's visuals has ever been given. What's the hold up? There's been countless edits and improvements to OpenStreetMap (aka FREE LABOR) that has been completely ignored in favor of a scanner that is typically devoid of building footprints, road updates and more.

Will there ever be an update to a new OSM dataset? If yes, then can we get an actual timeline as to when the scanner's old map visuals will be updated?

I've personally made thousands of improvements to OSM and have stopped doing it simply because if Niantic doesn't care, why should I?
