Still thinking. Everything you posted makes perfect sense. I understand what we are doing (I'm not using this on anything smaller than a 3.2) but I will in the future.
The base map with the MAF disconnected probably runs fuel metering off the throttle position sensor. So it's probably fine as long as you don't mess with the cylinder filling efficiency of the engine (very free flowing exhaust and intake) and you don't change the size of the throttle body. If you do those, it'll probably go lean again. But the non-MAF map is probably conservative to begin with so it might bring the fuel level to about right.
