It says "power=substation are facilities".

To me, that reads as "and cannot be nodes in their own right, not being objects".


Even if I'm reading it wrong, if you take the whole line of text:

"power=substation are facilities and substation=minor_distribution and substation=distribution are the only ones that could be mapped on a node"

it says, to me, that a power=substation node is only valid if it also has
a substation= tag (and with restrictions on that, too).



Meantime, if you create a node using iD and pick a "substation" type
you only get "power=substation" as the tags by default.
