I wonder whether it is interesting to know the difference between concrete, asphalt and pervious concrete. All three have different characteristics whether it be comfort for the cyclist or being dangerous under icy conditions or durability under heavy loaded trucks. What do you think ? Is it worth recording those differences for paved roads ?
Absolutely - it's certainly worth recording if you have the time and information. Similarly 'unpaved' is worth breaking down into dirt, gravel, fine_gravel etc.
But OSM is iterative - data gets better over time. So if you're trying to make a lot of changes fast, paved/unpaved is much better than nothing, and someone can come along and make it more detailed later. I generally tend to concentrate on the paved/unpaved split but I'm always delighted to see when people have done more detailed tagging.
