[Talk-us] The San Jose / Santa Clara border

A mapper has recently changed this to "cut the corner off" north of the 
880 between San Jose airport and Stevens Creek Mall / Westfield Valley 
Fair.  You can see the change at 
http://overpass-api.de/achavi/?changeset=66619223&zoom=18&lat=37.33883&lon=-121.93327&layers=B0TTTFT 
.

Some of this mapper's previous changes have had to be undone, so I did 
check the node change made here to see if it might be one of them.  
However, according to the node history 
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/373647840/history#map=13/37.3600/-121.9066 
the original source of this node was a changeset quite a while ago with 
a description "adjust boundaries based on san jose city map, bing, and 
common sense ".  It therefore would be great if a local could check it 
if possible.

FWIW I've only ever had the vaguest idea where the boundary was here 
(I'd always assumed it's around the 880 itself, but obviously the 
boundary predates the road, so that clearly makes no sense :)

Best Regards,
