I concur with this. My workflow involves removing TIGER data when I move a
node/way using gps traces or satellite imagery. I saw no value in keeping
this data. I believe I brought this topic up a while ago and no one ever
really gave me a good reason not to do this. If anyone does object, I will
delete the old way and draw a new one as Nathan stated as well, I just find
more value in moving the ways because a history on the way will show that it
originated from a TIGER Import, but no longer references to it because it is
in fact, not that way anymore. I really see no need to reference it anymore.
I do not however, go deleting TIGER tags off ways I do not touch.
