The data is TIGER data, not entered by a human, and there are plenty of errors in the TIGER data. I routinely delete unnamed highway=residential ways from TIGER after a brief look at the aerial imagery. It's one thing to delete something that someone else manually entered, it's another thing entirely to delete something that came along with a mass import from a data source with known flaws. -Ted
