It's been a couple of months, and Gaia has now refreshed its tiles based
on the updates I made for Kanangra.
The informal tracks are now rendered with significantly less priority
than the formal tracks. I should have taken a screenshot of before, but
I didn't. The formal tracks look to be the same style as previous, but
the informal tracks are now faint.

I did miss a few small tracks - I was focussed at the large scale.
I don't know how other downstream applications render the same data -
I'm not on Strava for example.
This could be useful for working with NPWS.

I thought I'd see if the tagging details in the US Trail Access Project

I tagged all of the tracks out at Kanangra - mainly because it has a mix
of tracks, but few enough that it's easy to cover them all - with
operator=NPWS or informal as appropriate. Basically the maintained ones
with operator tags, others as informal.
I know Gaia (for example) renders informal tracks with less priority
than formal tracks, though I don't know exactly the combinations of tags
they are focussing on. I believe they refresh their tiles every 2-3
weeks so I'll have a look again in a few weeks.
If you're into mapping bush tracks, I hacked an Overpass Turbo query
which does a pretty good job of visualising some of the useful tags (and
where tags are missing). Happy to share.

I had suggested changing to access=no, or adding a disused: prefix
(mainly to keep NPWS happy), but looking at this page, the
recommendation seems to be to keep the tags as they are now
(access=discouraged, informal=yes).

Given this thread is still going, the US has a useful collaboration
