Hello,
In my area, some organized editing activities have changed the
classification of some ways from a normal type to a link type [1] (for
example: highway=primary to highway=primary_link). [2] Those ways
function as links, but they also provide direct access to properties.
>From a semantic point of view, I find it a little strange that they
are mapped as links. From a pragmatic point of view, this does not
affect routing, but the rendering looks strange. Although I am using a
specific edit as an example, this has been an open question for many
local mappers for some time. What do you think?
