I map everything as long as it’s waymarked. If a variant is waymarked and 
named, it belongs to the route. It is the hierarchy I am not sure how to tag 
exactly. I see type=route in th Netherlands and type=superroute in Germany for 
the same type of hierarchy, and both seem to display fine on waymarkedtrails. 
What is a type=superroute needed for then?
