Not sure quite what you mean here - a

I’ve been trying to work out how OSM can be used to record and display the
cycle networks in Oxford. I can get most of the way with the standard
tagging in Map Features, but run up a few situations where the tagging
doesn’t fit the reality. One of these is the mishmash of tagging rules for

I'm not sure that any of the highway= values have assumed

It should concentrate on describing the physical nature of the way...
+1 on this...I also think highway should just describe the physical way

Just an idea, practical doesn't come into it ;-
But if we've always done it that way wins out every time then the maps
we produce probably aren't going to be as useful as they could be.
