Japan completely breaks OSM road descriptions, and uses the classifications
above tertiary to match their governmental classification scheme - even when a
“primary” road couldn’t otherwise meet the definition of a tertiary road if it
didn’t have a “primary” government road shield from 1910. But it does make OSM
consistent with existing Japanese mapping traditions.
