Hi, « Implied tag is the root of all evil » as a wise man once said.
I begin to think that implied tag is bad, let the data consumer do that. As long as the data is not set I consider the data imprecise. For instance in France I will assume by default that every road is paved, but it doesn’t mean that every unpaved road are tagged properly... In France I tag cycleway when it’s a legal cycle path (square / round traffic sign, bicycle logo on the ground), footway where only pedestrian as the right to go there, and path when it’s unclear or mixed with proper access tags I don’t assume surface, though I try to tag every time when it’s not paved.
