Yes, agree that legally public roads should be classified as
highway=residential/unclassified or service=alley as appropriate.
Pipestem (not pipestream :) ) is purely for shared (probably private)
driveways.

Hi,
I hadn't seen the "pipestream" before, and it does look to have some utility.
I'd much prefer that (legally) public roads be highway=residential/unclassified
etc so as these will all be present in government data.
If it's private (even shared between many people) then it should be a
pipestream or driveway or whatever so as to know you won't find it in a
government based list and need to rely on survey on the ground or an aerial
photo or whatever.

"so why isn't it just a simple highway=residential?"
in this case https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/203549225
either highway=service or highway=residential are OK with me
highway=service can be achieved by reversion in this case and there
are approximately 5000 ways to deal with. Not all are lanes but I
don't want to manually search 5000 ways looking for lanes tagged as
driveway
