I checked in JOSM and the tags looked fine there. I suspect they hadn't
come across sharrow and the cycling routes might be recommended by
someone but Tenth line road is not something that most cyclists would
cycle on and certainly isn't tagged as such. I
understand it is supposed to get cycle lanes sometime in the future.
The paths are tagged the exactly same except for the width, one says 1.5
the other 2 but both allow cycles.
The area is interesting because of the mixture of things for cyclists.
The width thing is important as the area is designed to allow cyclists
to access the network of paths to keep them away from traffic.
