You seem to be implying that increasing the amount of data in OSM is a
bad thing???
Increasing the amount of _implicit_ data surely is. There are good reasons, why
putting implicit data into databases is usually avoided.
Of course, llama access restrictions probably aren't a top priority,
The core issue here (that I believe we agree on) is that if tags have
inconsistent implications, they must be made explicit.
Absolutely true: explicit in the wiki ;-)
I don't think the wiki is a good place for that. Keep in mind that these
defaults would be nice to have in a

If it is millions time the same thing, yes. Look another thread
speaking about TIGER import clean-up.
Of course, llama access

Yes, it is. In PERU.
