can you give a definition for de jure?<br>
Which law applies?<br>

<div>Maybe there is a better word or phrase than "de jure" but
I would classify these as borders where both countries are
in agreement because of a treaty or a similar legal
document. For example, this role could be applied to more
than 99% of the Canada-United States border (there are still
some minor disputes between the two).</div>

Each country has its own boundary relation. <br>
For example? No conflict. ;<br>
Canada could have a boundary relation using way 666 as an outer.<br>
USA could have a different boundary relation using the same way 666
as an outer.<br>
<br>
The source may need to be stated ... I'd opt to put it on the way -
to help stop people moving it. <br>
<br>
<br>
Conflict;<br>
Canada could have a boundary relation using way 667 as an outer.<br>
USA could have a different boundary relation using way 668 as an
outer.<br>
<br>
These two may 'trespass' over each other. <br>
<br>
Why is it required for OSM to state the cause of this problem? <br>
OSM could simply indicate the opinions of where the boundary 'is'
from each country. <br>
This would then leave the render the problem of what to do. <br>
<br>
Where the two boundaries use the same way - simple - no problem. <br>
Where they differ? The choices are then available and could be left
to the renders rather than OSM? <br>
<br>
Too simple? <br>
