Totally agree ... but when the 'on the ground' situation is X, Near Y as the 
normal 'location', then getting fed something else in OSRM gets very confusing. 
I live in Broadway which is a tongue of Worcs sticking into Gloucs and sometimes 
we get referred to as Gloucs as people drive across :) OSRM is calling us 
'Wychavon' though which is even more confusing :( No mention of 'Broadway' at all
