Whilst I agree - more the merrier, just because you have only one trace 
it's not a valid reason not to upload it.

If you feel it's an accurate representation,  good. If not, add a note 
or Fixme tagged explaining that it needs retracing to get a more 
accurate average.

IMO, if your policy was followed, OSM would be a fraction of it's size & 
poorer for it.
