Ok, so what I'm hearing is that boundary=census (CDP) is a useful boundary
type to include in OSM when a named populated place is unincorporated and
therefore has no administrative boundary to include in OSM.  Including
boundary=census is useful in these cases so data consumers working with
municipal level boundaries have a fallback to use where no administrative
boundary exists.  That being the case, it sounds like in a place where a
municipal level admin boundary does exist, a boundary=census serves no
purpose?  So in most of New England where all the land is sliced up into
municipalities we can feel free to delete any boundary=census objects where
a municipal admin boundary with the same name exists?
