Description

I found vector.pbf [here](https://github.com/mapbox/abaculus/blob/master/index.js#L211-L213). Actually, mapnik.blend does not support vector tile blending. So those lines of code should be deleted to avoid confusion

Research direction

Open index.js at lines 211-213 and inspect how vector.pbf is passed to mapnik.blend. Remove the unsupported blending path, then verify that the remaining static-map flow still handles supported tile inputs without referring to vector.pbf.
