But on my etrex I can choose the types Motorbike and Car (beside HGV, Taxi and others), so there has to be some difference. As far as I know, these access restrictions are handled by different bits.
I personally don't like to have this dependencies hardcoded in the java code. I think it is the use of the style files to map different osm tags (like the motor_vehicle) to specific garmin ones. So each user can do it to his own thoughts and use cases.
