Yes, I had noticed this reference to "practial use", but wasn't convinced at first glance. Can you explain how you decide between something mapped that isn't and never has been consistent with our longstanding tag definition in the wiki, to be "wrong" and at which point it becomes "established use"? Could those things mapped as "runways" that are neither on airports (as required by the definition) nor are they actual runways in the meaning of the word, could those eventually be seen as "wrong" even if this happens to occur frequently (e.g. because of "tagging for the renderer" or from misinterpreting editor presets)?
