I am not looking to just solve my own personal 'problem'. What concerns me is that someone has made a decision that doesn't seem to be motivated and it is unclear (to me at least) who made it. I think that is a problem for an organization like openstreetmap. The issue itself is not insignificant for more than one reason. My concern is about good data and this 'rule' makes it a lot harder for me to upload clean data. Others might be concerned about privacy and change the data. And others again might not make their data available to save themselves the hassle of changing the data.
