The problem is if nobody uses it, there won't be any data.
True, but if the option to start using it isn't there. Then it also won't have data to even get started. I remember when I first started using Waze back on my Galaxy S3, it wasn't super helpful (for both the traffic and in some cases the map data). This was mostly due to it not being used by many people in my state at the time (the friend that told me about it used it in a much larger city with more "tech" people around). So even if it doesn't help me directly right away, I am more than happy to start using it daily to report what I can.
