Two routes, currently mapped together in one relation, but also containing subrelations, and not in the right order, and the total of that is part of a higher relation which also has variants. You can’t blame the route designers, you simply have to accommodate the real life variations. For rendering, it’s ok like it is. For routing, not at all. Cycling planners are slightly better than hiking planners, but I would like to see one make a plausible navigation route out of the E2 Yorkshire relation as it is now.
And yes, that’s a challenge.
