You are quoting me out of context, leaving the impression that I'd propose to tag the bridge way, this is not the case.
I was just pointing out that tagging the way under the bridge makes no explicit reference to the bridge itself, and can lose the implicit proximity reference when the way is split. An explicit reference would need a relation. Martin Koppenhoefer wrote on 2014-10-27 11:13:
