I don't understand why Google kills and replaces things seemingly with no thought of migration paths. Anyone know more about what goes on internally that causes companies to just throw up their hands in defeat on a product, forcing users to just start over? Is it really that hard to shim the Latitude APIs over the new service?

From what I can tell their migration path is "Move to Google+". I can't tell if that is viable, but it does make sense from Google's perspective.
