I suggest you make the time to read the wiki, think about what the wiki 
says ... BEFORE you ask the list to take their time to educate you.

OSM is not consistent. Different people do things differently. We don't 
all have the same house, car and bike. OSM is mapped by individual 
people, there will not ever be absolute consistency. Get used to it.
