If you refer to this question: https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/8129/how-to-make-a-hole-in-an-area-eg-woodland It was posted the 25th Sept 2011, not "some days ago". It is true that the most "voted up" answer (on 3 answers, not 6 or 8) is today a bit obsolete about iD. But this is normal. iD is the new online editor and is constantly evolving. The other "systematic errors" you mention in your googledoc is more about rendering issues.
