I'll add to this list all those taps that can be activated without a direct
manipulation of an object, such as passing your hand in front of a light ray
which causes the water to start flowing.
The objects being manipulated in this case are photons.
Maybe you are being needlessly pedantic

This is why I said "if it's got a user-friendly valve," like if you press a button (and a stream shoots up to
your lips to drink), wiggle a stem so water falls down (on your hands to wash), step on a lever (and the flow
begins)...yeah, these things have a knob / lever / valve (maybe it rotates,
The description doesn't work as a definition: "Generally for access to a
building, service station, beach, campsite, industrial estate, business
park, etc. This is also commonly used for access to parking, driveways,
and alleys."
A dead-end public road to a facility (called "service road"?)
Another exception in New England, particularly, is that some states
(especially New Hampshire and Vermont) have a non-trivial number of
driveways that are privately maintained but in whole or part legally public
right of ways. In some cases, three public right of way continues past the
maintained

it is not uncommon in rural areas around here that hiking or cycling routes

Ah, I thought of an exception: a service=alley is (usually, around here, in
California) a public way, but it IS more "service-" oriented, like maybe it
only gets used for rare, backyard-access by owners (which would be exclusively
private use), but maybe it DOES get used for trash collection

Makes sense to me, too, Greg. I don't know if it helps or hinders wider
understanding, but I understand what Greg is saying here, and while his
perspective is "Eastern USA" (and mine is "Western USA"), these don't seem far
apart or even different at all, and there may likely be a further

Some of this I know, some of this we (maybe now) know better because of your
sharpening of focus. Thanks, Martin! That's a nice, rich list of six separate
tags that mean six separate things. Related, many can agree, sometimes
sensibly combined, though often not.
