I keep getting a
QInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed:
No such file or directory
message.

sudo mkdir -p /maps
makes the message go away.

Is this a bug? Is it related to the AppImage or also on other builds?

If you would like to check for yourself:

sudo strace -f Downloads/Subsurface_4.5.1.122_i386.AppImage 2>&1 | grep inotify
(...)
[pid  7214] inotify_add_watch(10, "/maps",
IN_ATTRIB|IN_MOVED_FROM|IN_MOVED_TO|IN_CREATE|IN_DELETE|IN_DELETE_SELF)
= 2
(...)
