These things are often targetted at the less confident and less experienced riders. Those who have no problems riding down fast, busy major roads and know where they're going aren't really expected to want or need a lot of assistance.
What really annoys me about this is that very often the more experienced and confident riders, who are seen as an authority by others often rubbish such sites because they wouldn't use them. Less experienced riders listen to them and try to navigate using the A-Z or similar and end up getting put off cycling because they perceive an area to be less accessible and more dangerous than it actually is.
