Sounds reasonable to me. If it's horizontal or near-horizontal, depth makes no sense.

    According to
    https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dadit
    <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:man_made%3Dadit> the tag
    "depth" should be used for the length of an adit (horizontal mine
    entrance). According to wiki discussion, people seem to agree that
    "length" is a better tag for this, as "depth" is used to indicate
    how deep (vertically) something is.

    Any complaints or agreeing voices for this change?

    Cheers,
    Martin
