Well, if possible we should try and find a solution that solves both
problems. However, thus far this doesn't seem possible, and the
consensus does seem to be that restrictions of a way is of higher
priority.
But even for that, putting a node in an arbitrary location on a way
still seems inelegant to me.

A segment of a way is clearly a line between two points (nodes),
without inherent width (sure, it may be specified with width=*, but
it's not an inherent property of a way). Anyway, this is off topic.
What do you think of my suggestion? That the restriction should be
applied to the section of the way "that is indeed physically *under*
the bridge"?
