I don't know laughing at is all that appropriate. Al Mar (I assume
that's a he?) is so earnest; it would be like kicking a puppy.
If you read past the Romantic (pinched from you) introduction; and the
strange grammar; and the strange spelling (Germanic influence?), I do
think there is a very good point being raised. The road classifications
don't work very well in the country - any country. Track has too many
pernicious overtones to be usable under any circumstances.
In hindsight, I wish a system of use-density had been adopted along the
lines of (suggest logarithmic scale):
G: ..
H: ..
I: Less than 1 vehicle per week
J: Up to 1 vehicle per day
K: Up to 1 vehicle per hour
M: Up to 1 vehicle per minute
N: Up to 1 vehicle per second
O: ..
P: ..
Secondary roads would probably rate lever O: or above. Antarctic
outlying remote monitored stations G: or below...
