So lets at least have a clear difference between a plain highway=footway and
a plain highway=path
there is, a path is generic while a footway is for pedestrians

No, that isn't a difference. If path is generic then footway is a subset of
path.
It's this idea, that we need a vague generic basket for smaller highways
that has created all this confusion. It amounts to saying: put in a vague
tag and then add others to clarify. That isn't how people use tags

is there a good reason to use direction for the azimuth? The word suggests to
mean a combination of azimuth and altitude but the suggested values indicate to
mean azimuth.

What we have is a mess. Most data consumers will simplify it to meet their
needs.
About the only useful high-level distinction is between well-made paths,
typically in an urban environment, which clearly have been built with the
intention that they be used by someone, and poorly-made paths

I think the highway=trail proposal was right on the point.
highway=path was meant as equivalent to footway, cycleway etc and is most
often used that way. It's wording is unfortunate as the association with
path for many people is an unmade way. So it got mistakenly used for that
