I wonder if a search for the nearest street would provide a clue to the
router? Not as exact as having either a named way or a relationship.
IMHO we shouldn't advocate for a mapping method where you have to guess,
Bill,
You're right that we should map what exists on the ground. I think we
need to really consider a few factors here:
1. Why we map sidewalks at all (in either style)
2. What benefits one mapping method has over another
3. The data as it exists now

This is a judgement call. In NYC it's reasonable to assume that a road
has a sidwalk. It would be better to map roads without sidwalks than
roads with them, because a vast majority of roads have sidewalks.

The biggest issue here is usage. It's not what mappers should do,
but What mappers actually do and what mappers actually do is not to

Routing doesn't need names, it just needs connected ways and a means to

written directions. But how often do we need written directions any more?

Duplication of data, possibly?
Regarding the detection of the nearest street, the risk here is at the
intersection, where the sidewalk might be attributed to the other street.

Because there are walking paths with names, and that's not what you're
talking about.
