Not normal nor acceptable. I would suggest sending a message to the
I believe this was an import done in 2009. Here is an example changeset
that is obviously an address import in the area:

The import is documented on the import catalog page[1] on the wiki and
mentioned on the California imports page[2] as well. It
Toby,
Thanks for the pointer. I think you're right that in this case
especially, there's no reason to admonish anyone, but perhaps we can
examine the data and see if there's a safe way to expand it, like we
did the TIGER data.
That may also explain some large portion of the contractions I found.

Clifford,
I think the thing right now is to really understand the problem in
depth. The issues the community gets into and complains about

That's very bad and

Sorry, I've only created tiles from shapefiles, not from OSM data.

I have the databases to do this, but it's not clear to me how to
visualize this. Just color roads in that have abbreviations?
Paul,
Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out where the problems are- not trying
to dig deeply into them yet- I'm looking for clusters of problems (ie
San Diego), or I heard about a problem in Michigan where someone
decided to revert a bunch of the bot-mode changesets because he didn't
