I agree that at least in most of Europe it would usually be
access=destination rather than access=private. However, I don't
think that any routing engine should route through traffic over
service=driveway.

I agree; but we were talking about "armchair mapping" and in
that case you usually would not know what access rights applied
on the ground, so you should not add an access tag based on a guess.
