I see your point, but if you look at the template it's not possible to put a long description in the list of values for sac_scale. And the current "information" is misleading, so the idea has been "better none than wrong". There is already a link to the wiki at the bottom of the template window, which links to "path" and from there to "sac_scale".
If your descriptions are so misleading, then find others. OSM is no "read the wiki and when you understood it start" project. It is a "start and work" project. When your classification is misleading, so users use it wrong in your eyes, then classifications needs to be reworked.
And we are already relying on the users to actively search for the meaning of tracktype = gradeN, so this seems to work ok and is feasible.
No. The grades are translated as well and they have a easy definition. In usage of these is in no way accurate.
I'm also not totally happy with this solution, but we didn't come to any better one during the discussion.
Actually I oppose this solution, as it is against the basic idea of how OSM works.
