I have mapped perhaps tens of thousands of miles of bike routes in OSM. Yes,
really. I don't do this sort of "apply the name of the route to the element
track/path." We shouldn't.
Zeke's example is excellent and is a good reason for "route element naming" to
be "case by case" rather than

I think this inconsistency is bad for OSM.
Many ways don't have names, even if they have routes along them. They
are just footpaths, & tracks etc.
This instance on giving them a name tag is fake. It'll mean sections
with one route will have their name tag rendered, but where additions
One of the names might be the predominant name used locally.

Remove the name of the way, put a name on each relations. Except if it makes
sense to keep the name also on the way for whatever reason you see fit.

If the only name is the route name I think it makes good sense to put
it on the local way too, that's the name of the trail.

Thanks, Brad. It is a pass, as there are two identical signs in opposite
directions, 175 meters apart. The pass may have a name, after all, which is
on another sign. Anyway I will check with a local person.
The signs in question can be considered as geographical information boards.
