I'm confused and didn't understand this point.
Both of the screenshots used in the article show the street names.
Every street is shown on the zoomed in screenshot, and every major street is shown on the zoomed out screenshot.
In my experience, street names, especially on major roads, often don't appear until you zoom right in - usually to the point of the road width basically filling the screen.
