I completely change my mind.
route= on a way can be ambiguous (in case of multiple routes knowing and 
where they go at junctions) and the better place for it is in a 
relation, in which case it's optional and not very useful on the way.
But it is not invalid and there's no compelling reason to remove them.

What is incredibly surprising is that Osmose commands to add route= on 
ways where there is no route.
Osmose should remove those warning urgently.

In the meantime, flick them away with a "false positive".

Cheers,

André.
