But isn't that the case with lots of nodes? The "place=city name=London" node, does it describe something that "is the node itself", or rather lend a name to all that is around it? > While a road might be a pre-requisite for a speed bump I wouldn't say > that the road defines the speed bump. You certainly cannot tell the orientation of the speed bump from the node alone... I think that in trying to scratch your itch regarding highway=incline you're opening a rather big can of worms. - And to open one larger still, it has alway been my position that *anything* that depends on the direction of a way should be avoided unless it really affects the way itself. I would accept oneway=yes or the implied oneway in the direction of a river's flow, but anything that uses the concept of "left" or "right" together with a way should be avoided (because it is not about the characteristics of the way itself, but rather about where something else is located in relation to the way, and this is not a property of the way).
