Propaganda. Propaganda. Propaganda.

> But it's harder to get all tags in category. How would you get all the
payment methods, not the exact 'ellectrico'?
Why normal person need to know about all payments methods if he/she only
have mastercard/ellectrico/coins?

You probably never use data at all. DATA against your words:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/search?q=payment. People prefer
*complex* tagging
schemes because they can actually *use* this data and not to write long
post about regexes at tagging list.

> But for mappers, who are normal people, not the crazy data miners
route_ref=1;2;3;4;5;123;124;125;126;234;235;236;456;457;458a

How you search for ref=127? You are the crazy who want to use regexes. STOP.
