Good discussion, I also think the track should be mapped. Aside from access no I think it might be worthwhile adding decommissioned or rehabilitation tags to tracks that should not be used to indicate their intended end.
Other thoughts are: - why show access=no tracks on the map? Admittedly this comes down to the data consumers and their rendering. - would tagging the whole area with access=conditional add any value? - how will this discussion that will end in some form of agreed practice be documented on the map, aside from revised tracks that is? - have they also threatened other mapping companies with legal actions? ianal but my response would be highlighting the various mismatches as already pointed out in the thread. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.
