If you're going to directly compare two things, then you can't really say certain aspects aren't "fair". What you're effectively doing taking every part of Maemo that can actually compete in some way and ignoring everything that's superior about Gingerbread.

Maemo doesn't really "win" on the maps front, Nokia maps is hardly great on this phone. It's OK but I've had quite a few annoying issues with it. Just because it did something beforehand on a mobile doesn't mean it's better - it's "unfair" to the other device to discard its superior maps application because it didn't have it first. In fact by that logic, Maemo beats Gingerbread and Android 1.0 beats Maemo etc.

It seems your mini review is very geared towards working the facts in favour of Maemo regardless of which is actually better. Compare them like for like and I'm sure Gingerbread is superior in most of the aspects you compared. If you're going to say "a Google service is better on Gingerbread, but that's unfair because it's made by Google" or "This isn't a fair comparison because Gingerbread is newer", don't compare them at all.
