I think your assertion that it's a gross oversimplification is itself a gross oversimplification of what we are trying to achieve.
All this data is aimed at routing and navigation, not being a source of detail for the use of judges. The idea of having area-specific defaults has been discussed before, and AFAIK didn't get formalised. Don't forget that even simple things like "what is a bicycle" vary from country to country. Is a tricycle a bike? Is an electric bike still a bike? Is a bike pulling a 3-metre trailer still a bike? //colin On 2015-10-08 11:54, Richard wrote: > On Thu, Oct 08, 2015 at 05:33:12PM +1100, Warin wrote: > >> I'd think here 'we' try to tag the ground truth.
