Hello,

Following from this analysis [1], I would like to propose that we
abandon cobblestone:flattened, define the new value cobblestone:raised
for a rare case, and redefine existing values as follows:

- paving_stones: blocks or stones with smooth flat top, tight gaps
[same images as today]

- sett: hewn stones with flat top, wide filled gaps, comfortable to
cycle and walk on, uncomfortable on high heels [today's image and also
[2] used previously for sett]

- cobblestone: hewn stones with slightly arched top, wide filled gaps,
uncomfortable to cycle on, difficult on high heels [images [3] and [4]
used previously for cobblestone:flattened and cobblestone]

- cobblestone:raised: natural or hewn stones with very round/irregular
top, wide empty gaps, fixed to a bedding, difficult to cycle and walk
on, uncomfortable to drive on [images [5] and [6] used previously for
cobblestone but rejected]

- cobblestone:flattened: never (to avoid confusion)

What do you think?

This follows from two previous discussions here: [7] and [8].
