Agree. I think renderers and routers should not need to worry about
regional mapping conventions when interpreting the data. Adding
foot=no and bicycle=no to all trunk roads outside the UK seems to me
the best solution.

I also agree that the 'amateur mapper' versus the 'commercial data
consumer' is a false dichotomy. Many people working on data consumers,
including people contributing to the main map, are not professionals.
