$wgKartographerEnableMapFrame has been enabled everywhere since June 2022, we can remove the flag. It seems to have been added only to workaround the incompatibility between FlaggedRevs and Kartographer, which is now resolved.
The versioned maps flags have been enabled on production for 8 months and shouldn't be disabled again, so we can remove:
| Status | Subtype | Assigned | Task | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Resolved | None | T306872 Versioned Maps follow-up cleanup | |||
| Resolved | None | T326288 Deprecate some Kartographer feature flags |

We've had a bit of developer discussion and our consensus is that the flag was added to avoid broken mapframes on the few wikis with an aggressive FlaggedRevs configuration. Now that the incompatibility is resolved, we think that mapframes should always be enabled. The maplink tag is already available with no feature flag restricting it.
