Your opinion seems to reflect that of the rest of folks who've replied:
"Use your judgement, better data is preferrable."  

It means I've got more work to do, but there should be less effort
after-the-fact, so I don't mind re-running the exports & roadmatcher
bits.  I might have the data in by the end of the week, given work &
life & all that jazz.

> So go ahead upload and thanks to participate in OSM.

Thanks for the welcome :)

peace,
	Austin.
