Yes, but on the other hand deleting the cited part changed the
definition and made it more difficult to differentiate between
unclassified and residential. IMHO "lower end of the interconnection
grid network" was very clear, but the current state is a longish and
almost unstructured page of text, even including some country specific
hints, and a very general short description: "Public access road,
non-residential."

I think that every feature should have a clear "definition" in 1 (max.
3) sentence(s). All the examples and other particularities can go in
different paragraphs, but should not be required to understand the
point.
