You're blowing smoke, it's obvious source=gps is the same thing as
source=survey, however source=survey is a core set of features and
already in wide spread and common usage.
Stop trying to make this out to be something it's not.
Likewise source=gpsdrive should be source=survey as well, I see this a
lot and I'm not sure if it's a person or gpsdrive authors that have
caused this but some other tag should be used for the device
collecting the data and/or the software to be consistent with everyone
else.
