No.
If you have a GPS/GPX trace you must have been there & seen it. So don't 
rely on your hardware, use your eyes!

A bridge with two nodes & way will always be more accurate (note: not 
necessarily completely accurate) than a node. We're mapping physical 
objects from the real world as accurately as we can.
