Don't dismiss that argument so casually. The current rule is that the

We should be mapping as accurately as we can within the limitations (gps
accuracy, aerial imagery etc) that we have. Data can always be upgraded
when more accurate information becomes available. This proposal is a
step backwards towards inaccuracy.

no, their geometric representation is a line, but their width is (or can

yes, but it would not tell you how they are oriented, because a node has no
direction, it is a point.

At a road intersection, vehicle can interchange.
At a railroad intersection only one mode can use the way at a time.
A river/highway crossing is not an intersection. The stream does not stop
for traffic. These features should not share nodes, no mater how they are
