In my opinion, a route is something rather abstract. At least more abstract than a way on which we tag surface=, smootheness=...
So when we use a route relation to *model* a route in OSM, the exact model we use is not so important as long as the route is mapped properly. The 'one feature, one element' is very rhetoric here!
If a hiking relation share the exact same members as another cycling relation, the information is there, no need to give a harder time to data consumers.
A highly specialized tool like waymarkedtrail may detects multiple use relations, but you can't expect every new player to do the extra work for that. Keeping the data simple also helps in seeing the data used more widely.
Regards,
Yves
