Research direction

Start by locating MapChangeReceiver.onDidFinishLoadingStyle and the code that adds source A. Reproduce updating data for previously used latitude/longitude values and trace why the source is added again. Done means the app no longer stops with CannotAddSourceException when those data updates occur.
