Cleaning up miles and miles of highway=road is something I'd find very
tedious and would discourage me from contributing to OSM if I wound up
having to do it a lot just to get a decent quality of data. I'm already
a bit burned out from my attempts to clean up the massive number of
duplicated nodes from a botched import in 2012 that I just now found.
