This map is mapping exactly the sort of thing that would spawn a
100-reply thread on osm-talk from the old guard saying we shouldn't be
mapping things like that[1].

Either we're going to have to be more open to projects like that or
accept that they won't use OSM or contribute to it.

Personally I don't care what data you put in the DB as long as you're
maintaining it and it doesn't disrupt anything else unreasonably.

1. a cursory glance at their data reveals that they're mapping things
that aren't "on the ground".
