@kingu_platypus_gidora@octodon.social Paper maps had one crucial advantage over Google Maps and the like, and it's that you were not forced to focus on the correct route between A and B, so you could find interesting spots and take your time visiting them while travelling.
And about the pizza delivery issue, each pizzeria was assigned a neighbourhood or a set of streets for delivery, and riders were supposed to be familiar with them. In the rare cases when they didn't know the place, they could easily look it up on a paper street map. It's not like they had to cover the entire city, or anything. And even if they weren't able to find the address, they coud call the customer back and ask for clarification.
