  Well, since you claim you have knowledge in cartography, can you
elaborate on which cartographic rules is this breaking? Given that
paved and unpaved segments have actually different rules/procedures of
maintenance - therefore such depiction is actually communicating
correct and important information to the map reader.

  Also what specific QA problems does this raise? Can you provide some examples?

  We have some small stretches of motorway being marked by official
signs as not a motorway (for one reason or another but with real
influence on maxspeed, permissions etc.), would you also suggest
ignore the physical reality and tag those parts as motorway anyway
just for the sake of continuity?

P.S. Sometimes roads do change their state/appearance drastically on
the borders. Besides, which country should be less important and
change their classification?
