[Tagging] change recommendation from "depth" to "length" for the adit length?

[Steve Doerr]

deep, adj.:

1.
a. Having great or considerable extension downward.
b. Having great or considerable extension inward from the surface or 
exterior, or backward from the front.

(Oxford English Dictionary)

Both senses are dated from the Anglo-Saxon period.
