Presently, it's common for route relations to have names that violate
"name is only the name" and "name is not ref" and "name is not
description" rules for name=* tags.
I don't find it common in 'my area' of mapping. One or two examples
would demonstrate the situation?
In any case:
The name tag is used on may things for example; buildings, parks,
schools, highways ...
The use of the name tag as 'name only' applies where ever the name tag
is used. This is similar for other tags such as elevation, width, colour
etc. No matter what feature they are used on the tags carry the same
characteristics and restrictions. It is not necessary to repeat
these characteristics and restrictions for every main feature.

I have started a new proposal: that the name tag should be
restricted to the same meaning for route relations that it
has on other elements and that the description tag should
be used otherwise.
The proposal is unclear and appears to deprecate route and way
names of a form that are common around here for what I
consider to be good reasons. (In any case, 'description'
appears to be an inappropriate tag for whatever it is you are
proposing.) More details on the talk page.
