Like I said, I agree that it is pretty subjective tag and don't use it 
myself.

However, my point was to say that there are plenty of highways where
the legal speed is the most limiting one by any sane definition (I'm not 
interested in hearing about clever corners that somebody could certainly 
invent to counter this claim :-)). ...And one would not expect to have 
maxspeed:practical in any of those but only maxspeed as people use it only 
to solve a particular no-other-tag-exists problem case. Thus "low number" 
is sort of expected unless we'd have lots of active mappers on all those 
"open fields with no road at all" ;-).
