If the fix for this is to manually apply the national speed limit to every road, then OK, it's the first time anybody has suggested a fix and I'm willing to give it a try ...
(I'll assume that's not an entirely serious suggestion - the last time someone tried it it was very nearly bonfires and pitchforks all round!)
Perhaps you could try running the online routers that you're having problems with locally with bodged versions of UK OSM data to see what helps and what doesn't, and feed that back to the projects concerned?
I've not had any of these sorts of issues. I use a couple of fairly old Garmins (an eTrex and a Nuvi). The data used by mkgmap for the eTrex has had tracks explictly marked as private removed (and a few other bodges to help identify public footpaths); the data for the Nuvi has had all non-road highways removed to speed up route calculations. Both work pretty well; I've not seen an "incorrect directions at junctions" problem.
Both might get confused with long routes; If I tried to navigate from Derbyshire to somewhere in Devon I might be waiting a while for a route, but given that I can head to the M5 while it's doing that, it's really not a problem.
