yes, you can add values that aren't there and it will (sometimes ;-) ) work.

As a sidenote you shouldn't use the simplify way functions on other stuff
on osm.org than those that you entered yourself (IMHO), or in other words,
use it with great caution (it will most probably create more harm then well
if the mapping was sensible before). It will remove nodes that create very
gentle curves / minor deviations from straight lines that do exist also in
reality, etc and will eliminate fine detail that should be there instead.
Please be aware that this function (douglas-peucker-algorithm) isn't aware
of angles but only of delta distances (causing it to "fail" in the case of
very sharp curves for instance).

cheers,
Martin
