<div style="direction: inherit;">I tend to agree, but would limit
this to areas where you know more or less the context (regions
where you have been on the ground).</div>

<div style="direction: inherit;">When mapping far from any place
you have been to, it seems more sustainable to not infer tags
related to aerial imagery and your own context, which might have
little to do with the actual situation on the ground. Adding
suppositions coupled with fixme tags is not what we generally
recommend, and will only work in areas with good coverage of
active contributors on the ground.</div>

Any error that has a lesser level (lower capability) would not be
'serious' in a safety aspect. <br>

<span>suppositions: a belief held without proof or certain
knowledge; an assumption or hypothesis.<br>
<br>
As the assessment would be made with an image .. and that image
can be taken as proof the use of the word 'suppositions' is
incorrect. <br>
