Perhaps another question to ask then is is it too complex for new mappers to use when mapping buildings?

If we can accept odd shaped buildings that aren't quite the right size then fine it is the right tool for the job, but if we want fairly accurate building sizes and square corners on squared buildings so population estimates can be made then it appears from the results we see that it requires more training and a higher standard of mapping than new mappers are capable of with the current levels of training. In other words it doesn't matter how good a tool it is or what it is capable of if the new mappers don't understand how to use it.

And we still haven't really come to a conclusion about whether having squared buildings matters.

It's been stated a few times but since there's still confusion: iD has a button to square features. It has had this feature since before it was released.

We need to stop wrongly blaming iD, as it's not productive at figuring out what to change, and where.
