Even if it's currently "the only way", it should be
noted that it has the unfortunate effect of
mangling the geometry; there's no slight-right turn

Well, there are numerous intersections which are mapped
I propose that the radius would be from the centre of the
mini-roundabout to the centreline of the road around it.
And to the previous poster who said that diameter would be better as
it is hard to estimate the centre, I agree in general, but in this

I would map that as a mini-roundabout node, since the center median
doesn't pose a navigation risk.

For small ones, node seems just fine. However,

I understood this was about area=yes on a mini_roundabout tagged on a
polygon (closed way).

ah, so you are talking about diameter of the center usually not
traversed section.
i suspect that using diameter to mean ID will be error prone as some (many?)
will assume it means the OD of the mini-roundabout.

Tried measuring the radius on those mini's. Got approx 6-8m?

Mini roundabouts are normally too small to be anything but round.
I realise that we would use decimal s rather than fractions. But in most cases
a guestimate of diameter in metres will do. Most will be either 1, 2 or 3
metres, using radius there will be a lot that are radius of 0.5m.
