i looked at some examples the last time this came up, and i've
looked today, and i've read that wiki page, but for the life of
me i can't figure out what's wrong with the streets that are
referenced.  am i missing local knowledge that would make it
clear?  or am i just being dense?  what's a "braided street", and
how do you recognize one on the map?
