yes, I was not sure if I understood that one right. Is the question if
there can be certainty about the correctness of these lines, or is it
whether the certainty is marked on the lines?

Case 1 could be regarded as a pointless question if asked by someone
who is a long time member of Openstreetmap. Of course you can be
certain of nothing and everybody can modify everything. You can also
not be certain that the original data was transformed and imported
correctly.

Case 2 would require a lot of research (basically for all of those
lines plus all modifications), which I have not done.
