If the consensus of the community is that US states are regions, I'll
see to it that they are fixed as quickly as my leisure time permits.
I don't think the issue is whether to consider states regions or
nations. I think the issue is that "NCN" corresponds to a specific
cycle network[1] that is located in the UK. Cycle routes in the US or
anywhere else in the world are not a part of this network and
shouldn't be tagged as such.

The wiki pretty consistently recommends "ncn" for national cycle
networks, "rcn" for regional networks, and "lcn" for local cycle
networks [1], even as a value for the "network" key [2]. I know they
originated as UK-specific tags (such as "lcn" for the London Cycle
Network), but they've been generalized for several months now at least.
However, if the documentation/consensus again changes, I'm willing to
retag all the routes I mapped in Ohio.
Personally, I find the light blue regional routes pretty illegible
against the green topo map, while the navy local routes are oddly very
prominent, though that's an issue with the cycle map, not the terminology.
