You removed the photos I said not to remove and kept the one that was worse

The recent appeal I made was misinterpreted by someone. There were two photos of the Newer Map installed at the head of Watts Creek Trail. This is the better cover photo and reflects the point of interest of the trailhead better. Now the current photo and only photo is still an out of focus and low resolution shot of an Information Board describing nature and boardwalks and birds of the Greenbelt. It's titled "Welcome to the Greenbelt" (but you can barely read that in the shot) and should be considered its own thing from the trailhead POI. It is a real object but shouldn't be the cover photo. Using likes hasn't changed which photo was used so I decided to use this forum to lay the case that the big bright Map photos are the better ones.
This is a request to reverse the previous action/decision to delete the newer and prettier pictures of the new map board with the Trail Name right it and keep an old out of focus information board that isn't the proper object to represent the spirit of the waypoint or the start of the trail.
Delete this photo:
reinstate these photos:
They are of this Map that marks the start of Watts Creek Trail.
Title: Watts Creek Greenbelt Trail
This wayspot is located at: 45.32710166528056, -75.88868714869022
In Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
I reiterate for clarity. Delete the photo of the object that doesn't have the name of the trail on it. Give back the photos of the map that has the name of the Trail.

Hello! We won't be able to reinstate the removed images.
Having said that, you can submit a new Wayspot for the Information Board you're referring to.
No I can't submit a new wayspot because reviewers will just duplicate it because a photo for said information board is now the only image on the waypoint for the trail. This has been an endeavour in futility to petition through this channel, but to actually seem this unfamiliar with how your own database is curated and reviewed by the community is quite humerous.
No but this is hilarious because like duh the information board could be nominated. But it won't go through with the nearby waypoint having a photo of it on as its main photo instead of the maps you or someone else deleted. Why do you think I was trying to get the photo removed? The problem is immensely compounded now. I will have to add back a photo of the map board myself, then wait for the review process, then muster enough players to use likes to outvote the photo of the wrong object, all to get a new waypoint for your database? Yeah no. Pay me for that privilege I'm not doing that extra headache for free.
You can submit one and Niantic will approve it. At least thats what happened every time I asked for removal and submitted a replacement photo.
Considering the track record here I have no faith in that at all.
