Route ignores obvious left turn

It took a loooooong time (probably due to the refresh cycle of the OSM server used by MRA), but it finally works now!
@Martin-Wilcke the refresh cycle is not to do with OSM,
an edit to the OSM map can appear & be publicly available within a matter of hours.As I understand it, MRA take a snapshot of the OSM map data & the timing of the snapshot is quite irregular,
it can lag by many many months as you have seen.Here map data can take from a few days to several weeks to update
MRA update their Here data a lot more regularly, I think with every MRA updateBlackView BV7100, Android 12

That's what I mean by
the OSM server used by MRA
Does MRA mirror the complete OSM map data on their own server?

Apologies if I misinterpreted your previous post, terminology often does not translate well.
e.g. for me the term "mirror" implies the same data is available in 2 or multiple locations at similar times.
So I would not use "mirror" regarding MRA's OSM data as it is out of date for a considerable amount of time compared to the data available from OSM. It is why I used the term "snapshot".Sorry, I do not know where or how MRA host / store their data, I would just be guessing.
Maybe someone else has the answer?BlackView BV7100, Android 12

Maybe someone else has the answer?If we're being precise, we're not talking about the map data that is displayed, but rather about the data used for routing.
I assumed that MRA uses a service (i.e. a REST API) that takes over the routing and thus also accesses a server on which the routing data is stored.
If MRA stores the routing data on its server (yes, as a snapshot), then the developers must also have implemented a routing engine (presumably based on one of the available frameworks).
Regardless of how it is technically implemented, the OSM data is obviously updated in long cycles. However, we should bear in mind that MRA focuses on HERE data, which is why the time lag in OSM data is not so important in my view.
