Why it has caused it to become ambiguous?
cycleway:lane allows to distinguish this cases

> Also the new tag is missing in the JOSM cycle lane presets.
> In iD there seem to be no cycle lane presets at all (?)

It may or may not be a good idea to request support for this or
other tags on issue trackers of this editors.

Note that this distinction is appearing only in some countries.
