Like I said, I believe the idea is about sharing. Even if only one person has all the maps, unless that person wants to go to the mail/retainers several times, they may distribute it to the rest of the party for convenience so that each member can have a chance to be the map owner.

And as for the economy, this also limits how many you can sell at one time, which has the benefit of letting different people get a chance at some easy profit.
The limitation has been bypassed since the main issue people care about (I presume) is how many maps in total you can have/store/farm.

Anyway, maybe I'm missing something, but I don't get the point of forcing people to share their maps. Everyone can collect maps, so why are we encouraging people to be lazy and then leech off others and get their maps? I should also mention that I'm of the opinion that when people run maps together, they should all be allowed to roll need unless the map owner really wants a certain item and thus the others should pass. Also, I'm all for keeping the restriction of selling 1 map per retainer. I have no issue with that.
