I agree that the priorities need to be codified (for the standard style), but this remains unchanged, no matter if the boundaries are rendered by polygon or by way.
Also, this is not something that should be decided or controlled by the mapper/data. The map database just collects all the available information. What of that data to use, and how to prioritize different data is up to every individual consumer, with osm-carto just being one of many.

One thing that should maybe be codified, is where multiple types of boundary coincide. For boundary=administrative it is pretty clear that the lowest value of admin_level takes precedence for the rendering, but what about if it is co-linear with a political boundary for example? I would expect the rendering for the admin boundary to take precedence here, but does everyone agree with that? What about the boundary of a police area combined with an admin boundary? I am raising it here because it is subjective, i.e. subject to human decision making, in the absence of any consensus about the relative rendering priorities of these boundary types. Colin
