[Tagging] Is there a good way to indicate "pushing bicycle not allowed here"?

This thread has been quite amazing to me. My impression is that it starts with some routers (a.k.a data consumers, a.k.a. “renderers”) treating a “no” as a “maybe” and now people are looking for a new term to indicate that “we really, really, mean NO!”. This is worse than tagging for the render, it is obsoleting a straight forward and explicit tag value for a broken renderer.

Discussion devolves into “if I disassemble by bicycle and put into wheeled luggage is it okay now?”.

Why not treat “no” as no? If I can push the bicycle through then we already have “dismount”.

Is there some other way of getting a bicycle through? If so, then come up with a new value for that (“disassembled”?).

In the meantime, file bug reports against any router that routes a bicycle over a “no”.

At least where I am, “no really means no” and if you are caught with a bicycle at all then you are subject to a fine. Thousands of kilometers of paths are so marked and it really wouldn’t be nice to redefine an existing value.

Cheers!
