Cool article from a technical perspective.

I dont understand the business ask for drawing a map to show potential customers, then placing them randomly on the map. Why not just give rough volume numbers or something instead? It seems at least misleading.

The map, business logo, and people icons just help illustrate the feature. Volume and other value related benefits are communicated elsewhere in the page content, but aren't really additive to the blog post.

What's an ask?

A "business ask" is like a "business need", but not clearly a need. It's a way to differentiate (and possibly dismiss) them and avoid seeming dismissive.
