But in https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Latvia#M.C4.93r.C4.B7i P roads are called regional and V are local. So basically A and P roads are indistinguishable by their network tag, which strips it of meaning.

thanks a lot for spotting this. does not look right - A & P should not
be at the same level.

we should probably change P to lv:regional and V to lv:local
