I haven't checked every way in the area but it looks like most of
these aren't TIGER roads to begin with. You created them  (version 1)
then balrog-kun renamed expanded all the street name abbreviations
(version 2) so they are in version 2 and last touched by balrog-kun
which is why they are being rendered as red. The TIGER edited map
isn't really intended for these ways since they aren't originally
TIGER data.

I guess it would be nice to turn ways that weren't imported from TIGER
green, regardless of last editor and version number. But only the
current version of the way is available for inspection while rendering
so this is kind of hard to do...
