"highway=path, path=hiking" doesn't say any more to me than
"highway=footway" on its own would.
The distinction is "well constructed" versus "rough, minimal maintenance".

Well, both of these can be used for 'hiking'.
You appear to be using this expression in a subjective way, which is not
helpful.
Describe the physical condition of a way, with tags such as 'surface' &
let the users decide if it's their idea of hikable.
If it's a signed hiking route then it should preferably be within a
route relation.
