I would say it's more important to have the border in the right place (at least such that all roads in one state are on the correct side). I would disagree. No one is going to use OpenStreetMap to solve border disputes in the US. There are higher quality datasets that come from the people that make the rules. On the other hand, removing overlapping boundary ways will clean up the existing OSM data, make it easier to edit and easier to consume.
I'm not sure what to make of this response. Why would you say we have borders in OSM? Would that reason be better suited by having the borders be in the correct place but duplicated or by having them in the wrong place but consolidated?
