Well, my comment about editors wasn't supposed to be offtopic, since the 
question of data being "... far easier to understand and maintain, 
especially for novice mappers" was one of the points raised at the very 
top of the thread.

It's perhaps worth mentioning that in each of iD, P2* and JOSM (without 
plugins) it's possible to swap without too much difficulty between the 
two relations and the constituent ways at 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/36.62063/-121.90621  P2's internal 
visualiser fails with the park visualisation though, and I can't see a 
way to select the marine nature reserve without deliberately selecting 
the "relations this way is a member of" at the left, so I'm still not 
convinced that this area is as newbie-friendly as it was before.

Best Regards,
Andy

another editor for a while - it might be worth revisiting.
