If you follow these lists for a while (and possibly the enhancement
requests filed in trac or github for the map style) then you will see
that we have many many people keen on adding more and more detail to the
map.

We're trying to keep the default map usable but at the same time it is
also used by mappers to get feedback on their edits; cartographically
cleansing the map would probably mean disappointing many mappers. It's a
thin and difficult line, and something that is "prettier" (or
"cartographically more appealing") need not automatically be the
"better" solution for our default map.

Bye
Frederik
