No, not every mechanical edit. There is no sharp border. The example you gave correct errors. Such edits should not have to be discussed. But the changeset I gave changed tagging and IMHO did not fix errors (see the linked wiki page). OT: If you want, you can report this (max_speed -> maxspeed) to user Oli-Wan the maintainer of the bot Wall·E [2]. This bot operates at the moment only in Germany and Austria but can be extended to other countries if the local community wants it.
