What I think we're saying is; we don't want things on the map that are not actually there on the ground. either via Signs or Real Things. So a Route route round a country park marked with Purple Arrows can be marked. But a Route on a leaflet, notice board (or website) can't be. If you wish to put your own routes on a Blog etc then fine but don't add them to OSM. Unless you put markers on the ground that others can see.
