You do have cases of new mappers being told that they are "doing it 
wrong" because they try and update OSM data that is (at least partially) 
regularly updated by imported government data, though. 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/63105329 is one that springs to 
mind (mainly because it's a buolding I've visited a very long time 
ago).  Whatever the rights and wrongs of the situation, this mapper 
didn't feel able to continue in OSM.

Best Regards,
