A bot would perhaps not be "much worse", but still a bad idea; it would
perform the bad edits that we're talking about it a more efficient way.

A recurring theme in OSM discussions goes like this:

Mapper 1: "I want to do X."
Mapper 2: "But X is silly."
Mapper 1: "Others are doing it too."

Just because people some people make bad decisions when mapping, doesn't
mean that the whole project has to lower its standards.

Bye
Frederik
