My point is that tagging should allow both types of routes to be recorded,
so different renderings can be produced for different purposes (and indeed
routers can use the information as well, if they want to).
I know that different route networks apply for different purposes in my

If the routes are signed, that's good. If there are measurements that can
be tagged in OSM (vehicles per
