<div>Could you envision a node passed by two hikes, and

If it only relates only to that relation then quite possibly. <br>
<br>
If it is a required activity for that route then I would think so.
This would link it to the operator, route name etc, possibly
minimising the work of mappers and reducing errors? <br>

Of course it is. A way segment is also a feature in itself,
which<br>
doesn't mean that it can't or shouldn't be part of a route
relation:<br>
