There's no good reason for it not to be.
It makes sense on every level, lore, gameplay perspective, and so we can actually see the game we're driving around in.
It was extremely annoying to be wishing for that style of GPS, only to discover it is in the game and just not available for no good reason.
It sucks when I have to drive with the mini-map. You spend as much time looking up at the corner of the screen as you do looking at the world you're driving through, it is unrealistic even with real world GPS.
Most of the "windows" for vehicles in the games are literal screens. Not having that style of GPS as an option makes no sense at all.
It'd be nice if we also had an auto drive to waypoint function for getting around the city as well. At least in some cars. Not for doing things like races for you, but just for getting from point A to B.
Again, it already seems to be in the game as there are times NPCs will drive you around. Players could easily take manual control if the AI gets stuck in traffic or something and go back to self drive once whatever obstacle is passed.
Driving with a KB+M and not having mouse steering sucks hard. That would be a good way to mitigate it, and not have to constantly switch between a gamepad and KB+M.
It's not like there's a ton of vehicle combat in the game, and even when there is, the player is not usually the one driving anyway.
