Unfortunately, I haven't try it yet. I just have read so many about it that
I thought it's giving a reasonable output already. And ofcourse, it's better
to test it on a piece of world I know - to compare the output to the
reality. If it's gathering data via the Overpass-api, it seems it shouldn't
be a problem to try it on any area (rather small) I can think of. Or do I
miss something?
Please, where can I see it run to make a better notion?

I was rather curious about how it works (if it does) than having a concrete
solution, but I will think of it. As you say, adding new nodes could
sometimes do more harm than gain.
I can imagine one could fix the point relative to two (or three) mapped
objects and known distance. I'll let you know when I think it over.
Thanks for your quick response.
