Yes, I agree. But if there once were 4 nodes stretching over 30 km
(I'm slightly exaggerating), tagged just highway=tertiary, and now
these initial 4 nodes became 500 nodes or 5000 nodes, distributed now
in 20 different ways with lots of attributes, routes running over
them, etc., how much of the initial 4 nodes is still there?

Just bad luck for us? Or is there a limit where original rights have fainted?

cheers,
Martin
