It might fit better once there's some affordance for personalized presets or something along those lines. In the meantime, there's plenty of room for more keys and special cases for specific types of routes.

I guess this would mean identifying all data elements people now put into the names; defining tags for all these elements; defining model route types; define a standardized display format for each model route type.

That's the thing: somehow the arcane "ABC 123: Utopia => Metropolis" 
format did become standardized for public transportation routes, both on 
the wiki and in actual usage. I'd actually consider it good news if 
nothing like that has happened for any other kind of route relation.
