We should also consider continuity.  It is not helpful if a road is
constantly shifting between highway classifications, because renderers use
that to decide which zoom level roads appear at.  If you look at many areas
of the US at certain zooms, many roads are practically rendered as dashed
lines because of frequent classification changes.  Classification should be
a measure of relative importance and not strictly tied to physical
characteristics.
That is a good point Brian.  I think in this case there is generally
continuity.  I initially thought otherwise, but it may have just been due
to not all tiles having been rerendered to reflect the classification
changes.
