Let me apply your logic to a different use case. Just imagine that in my
country there is a law that generally allows bicycles to use a one-way
road in both directions.
So I would define one-way as "mainly or exclusively intended for use in
one direction, bicycles may use both" and I claim that this is sufficient.
If you have a more rigid law where one-way is strictly for all vehicles,
it does not matter, fuzzy logic is good. Right?
I don't think so.
But again, it is a waste of time to discuss whether there is a problem
at all when we have chaotic and contradictory tagging for very basic use
cases. That is a problem.
