It seems it is only ambivalent to the four or so people who make the tagging 
mailing list unreadable. I haven't seen them actually use the tag.

The seventy people who used the tag did not have a problem with understanding 
what they did.

bridge=culvert is nonsense: A culvert is not a bridge.

ford=culvert is even more insane. There is either a ford or a culvert. It's 
physically impossible to be both at the same time.
