This might be your point of view but I would not consider it as common sense. > And if one does not consider > the separate footways correct data and one feels it destroys valid > routing (as in Kevin's example) it's easy to delete them without > violating any OSM rule we all agree upon. Kevin's example merely shows that asking the wrong question results in useless answers. If you intend to go the direct line, crossing the street at an arbitrary point, it does not make sense to use a router in order to calculate a route on dedicated footways. Instead you should use the so-called "off-road" navigation mode of your GPS device, which only shows the direction.
