[Google Maps API] Actual map not displayed in the HTML preview in the Playground and Search Inspector
A high-volume customer reported the the actual map is not displayed in the HTML preview for Google Maps API searches in the inspector. I was able to reproduce it both in the Playground and the search inspector:

I also noticed that the map seems to be shown when start is omitted. It's when setting start (even to 0) that the map isn't included.
For pagination results (even with start=0), Google returns only the next page data (see contents in the link to raw_html_file) instead of the whole HTML. We try our best to recreate the previews of pagination results based on the data. However, the data lacks the information to recreate the map, which is why the map can't be displayed.
