Hope that helps to clarify. I can certainly submit a proposal for
the route format
Please follow the process:

You've gone through the "Why?" here, so the next step is to document
current behavior. Who is currently publishing elevations, and how
are they doing it? Are there any established formats for this type
of information? After answering questions like these, we should look
at the possibility of using existing markup standards to cover the
information, including HTML structures and existing microformats.
Only when we've established that existing markup standards fall short
of solving the problem of standardizing real-world publishing should
we start thinking about new markup. Because old markup tends to be
adopted more readily than new markup, and adoption is what makes
standards useful, new markup should always be a last resort.
Peace,
