Unfortunately not. I think it has something to do with where Project-GC gets the mapping data from. Obviously PGC has no influence on the mapping data that they get, and as far as I'm aware there's no plans to change where they get it from.

For the vast majority of countries, we get map data from OpenStreetMap. We have influence over map data in that we can choose what source to use if there are several, but we don't create map data ourselves so we have to make do with some available (free) set.

Thanks folks, given the related question's answer I figured as much but I thought I'd check. Thanks for clarifying.
