=path is such a horrible catch-all tag and one that is extremely entrenched - I
am surprised no one has implemented a path=trail subtag, similar to sidewalk,
so we can separate all the hiking trails and other “hiking” paths, and then
apply different hiking limitations you wouldn’t expect to find on a sidewalk or
playground way.
Mixing trails and sidewalks in the path key is as horrible as mixing up runways
and train tracks in a “highway=not_car” way.
Yeah. But it's so entrenched that trolltags are probably the only way
out of the mess. And sac_scale is _surely_ not the right trolltag! The
problem with sac_scale is that it's an impossible scale. I'm told that
https://youtu.be/VKsD1qBpVYc?t=533 is still only a 2 out of 6 on that
scale, and that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3y5_lbQZJwQ is still
only a 3. Note that one misstep on either of those trails can easily
mean death.
Similar problem with mtb:scale .
