I like to point out that this import proposal is part of a series of <br>
imports that has proven to be problematic in results as previously <br>
pointed out (non-successfully) to the importer:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/111427028">https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/111427028</a><br>

In particular<br>

<br>
has been proven to be incorrect as evidenced by the speed of the <br>
imports:<br>

<br>
and the resulting damage to the database, littering it with <br>
geometrically incompatible features, like for example visible here:<br>
