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.
