I came across a relation for a school bus:

Isn't this a little too much detail for OSM?
A single relation? Really? We map lots of private-access things, like
driveways and access roads, private clubs, etc. As far as volume,
fighting with limits caused by import of tens of thousands of
individual non-streams in the desert, landuse shapes that were
over-digitized by an order of magnitude, individual trees, etc. all
seem more realistic things to focus on limiting, no?
Use of OSM by schools is a great use of both their and our resources.
The only note I'd be sending the user is to encourage them to import
more of their bus routes and show others how to do so.
but they do vary from year to year. i worry about importing such data then
failing to maintain it. it's very subject to bit rot.
