good deal of discussion about this
so another point of view is "residential" for those industrial area streets

From a user's point of view, I would expect to see major roads one colour,
secondary roads another colour. I wouldn't expect to see a different colour

That depends what you mean by service road. Following the scheme
given by 1) and 2) above: If it's named/public, highway=residential.
Otherwise, highway=service.
I generally tag lane ways as highway=service, as that's what they

In JOSM you can use copy and paste
