Is it? I don't see any issue about using it on routes as well. There are 
cases where this makes a lot more sense. E.g. if there is a trailblazed 
way over a bridge and there are no signs installed on the bridge, only 
before and after. Should there be a traiblazed-Tag on the bridge? Or 
should it be removed and a routing app will output a warning "only 90% 
of the route are trailblazed"?

Commonly, symbols are only issued for a whole route and not for 
individual pieces of the way. So, in general the tag should be on the 
route. But if there is a case where the tag applies to a short way, I 
don't see a reason to disallow the tag to be added.

Tags should be where they make sense - and if a route is trailblazed
the tags should be on the route. If a way has a symbol trailblazing 
without being part of the route, the tags should be on the way.

Note that way markers can either mark the way as such ("here's the 
way"), or mark the route ("this is scenic route #12").
