"smoothness" was very controversial from its beginning. It is not used
by any data consumer and probably will never be in the future (for the
reasons already reported here). But people use it.

Your new values remembers me an older proposal:

There might be some others since this discussion is not really new.

I think in general, we should clearly distinguish "practicability"
tags for tracks and paths because it's not the same type of
transportation (4 wheels vehicles for "track" and mtb, (atv),
off-road motocycles, pedestrians for "path"). Please keep "mtb:scale"
and "sac_scale" for paths/footways and "tracktype" for tracks.
Otherwise it will be very confusing for everyone.

This example is a track for me.
