I created a patch

https://github.com/Project-OSRM/osrm-backend/issues/6762

And tried brute-forcing routes (~500K) with that in my county and checked the 
routes which differed. Typos are not that much of an issues as
keepright, osmosis and co make a good job it seems. Differences where
very few - I had 2-3 hot spots where roads were tagged with multi-value
access tag values, and some interesting values like "residents",
"employees", "unknown" - Which all should be avoided i think

I found "designated" as value beeing used so i added it to the positive
list. Besides that i'd say it produces better results.

I just switched my RouteQA over to running with that patch.

  Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
