Is there a deeper meaning of adding foot=yes or bicycle=yes to highway=track or highway=path without adding other limitations? I thought track and path are by default routable for foot and bicycle, so IMHO they add nothing.I think it's a question of defaults. If one exists and the value matches, then the key is not needed. Otherwise, it is. Some persons have tackled the definition of defaults like Relations/Proposed/Defaults. I make no claim about the value of that proposition or another, just stumbled upon. But while reading this list I have often thought that defaults vary from one place to another and that phrases "looking right before crossing" depend much on default-driving-side=right/left. This fact is obvious to someone driving or, hopefully, crossing but not to a program. I had sketched an idea about defining defaults for traffic zones, like urban speed limit, but without success. I think that if defaults were defined, much time would be spared repeatedly discussing everybody's opinion about one or another. Cheers,
