If others change the definitions in the wiki for those intensely used tags
... there's a high probability that this will render OSM data inappropriate for
serious use.

I think that this cannot be discussed here. This has to be done locally.
In Belgium, primary roads are roads with a reference in the form of an N
or R followed by one or two numbers. The reference of a secondary road
contains one letter and three numbers and a tertiary has no reference but
has

Then I can't honestly grasp what this interconnecting network is.
Or rather, I think I understand what you mean, but you're not defining it -
you're describing it with a vague term.

If there was any practical difference between residential and
unclassified, the TIGER import ignored that in the US by using
residential for everything unimportant. So when I map I treat
residential as unclassified with mainly residential abutters, and will
sometimes change TIGER residentials

I wonder if this definition which was formerly part of the description
for highway=unclassified is still valid:
Unclassified roads typically form the lowest form of the

IMHO, it's a sentence that is both unclear and wrong. Interconnecting grid
network has no significance: if it wasn't interconnecting it wouldn't be a
network, and a grid network is just a specific case of a network but the
unclassified applies

When I had a go at re-writing it, I tried to give some clarity on the
boundaries with adjacent values (residential, tertiary, track) -
without being too country-specific. I'm not sure that the deleted
sentence is particularly helpful, so I'd leave it out on the
keep-it-simple principle.

Yes, but on the other hand deleting the cited part changed the
definition and made it more difficult
The problem is that it ain't that simple. Quite a lot of unclassifieds
don't go anywhere much, and aren't really part of the connected
network. An unclassified isn't necessarily higher in the hierarchy
than a residential.

Of
course, the roads are interconnecting, otherwise it wouldn't be a
network.
I thought this was a common term in English, but as I am not a native
speaker I might be wrong
