Hi.
I'm also Spanish, and I'm very newbie. But here is my interpretation:

I understand "traffic_sign" is not related to the subjacent way, so
"highway" is used instead for signs that are relevant for pathfinding.
Also, highway shows some implicit values not shown on "vertical signals" (i
guess "traffic_sign" is used for "vertical signals" only, not for signs
drawn on the path itself). This explains why maxspeed or weight limit are
included in the category highway.
