This excuses having different maps in the sense that my map may be very blurry in the areas in which I don't work. On the other hand, I don't think it at all excuses incompatible maps.
It doesn't excuse them, but it does explain them - since each still has the default, evolved/social map in the unexplored areas. And they will have until the new knowledge penetrates enough to become the newer default, at least among academics.
