<div>The values used in the destination tag (<a

href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:destination">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:destination</a>)
should always display the exact name as it is shown on the
signpost</div>

When the 'name on the signpost' changes along the way, or by the
direction of travel .. what then? <br>
<br>
-------------------<br>
The more data that is available the better. <br>
<br>
Some languages are phonetic (Russian, Arabic for instant) so a name
correctly stated maybe of some use to gain verbal directions. <br>
<br>
I see no reason to remove data unless it is incorrect. Data bloat is
a problem ... and as OSM grows it will be an increasing problem. <br>
Removing data restricts the future of OSM .. where does it stop? <br>
Should all highway=track be removed as 'most' people don't use them?
<br>
Should the number of nodes in a way be restricted to less than 20
per kilometre? <br>
<br>
The data base should contain all the data. Post processors can
remove (filter) as much as they like but not remove data from the
data base. <br>
