Actually, you missed the third group: people like me who beleive that residential=(unclassified+abutters=residential) and as such the tag should be abolished altogether. And that perhaps the abutters tag should be abolished also, in favour of areas. > Now with the AND import coming soon, we have to decide how to converse AND > local streets, to residential or unclassified. We firstly, the AND contains areas describing industrial zones and such so you can easily see where people live. This is a far better solution than tag roads. And secondly, unless you see a way to look at the data and determine one way or the other, we have to make either *all* streets unclassified or *all* street residential. I think you'll agree that the former choice is obviously better. > So, is there actually an intelligent design behind residential versus > unclassified, or is it just survival of the fittest?

In the long run though, I don't think it matters.
