Agreed, if I understand you correctly.
In the case of something like the Great North Walk, it can be a bit of a
grey area as not only the main track, but many of the feeder tracks are
labelled Great North Walk. If you didn't know the history of the tracks,
you could easily assume it's all just the Great North Walk.
Spatial Services often shows the Great North Walk in a different colour
to the name of the individual track
eg:

HI,
On some paths route signs have been used to 'name' the path.
One example is the 'Great North Walk', a Sydney to Newcastle walking
route, where many of the paths existed before the route was created. I
think this is a combination of mistaking the route signage as the track
name and route relations not rendering.
In the Blue Mountains some paths have more than one OSM way - each with
different 'name', at least some of these are routes that may, I repeat
may, not be the true path name.
Example
Way 1199677262 - 'Grand Clifftop Walk'
Way 22761613 - 'Overcliff Track' Note NPWS route 'Overcliff-Undercliff
track' .. the over cliff track is mapped separately in OSM. A route
relation could be made with both these tracks and a website link..
--------------------------
In the Blue Mts where there are overlayed ways and one of them is a
route I think it would be best to remove that way and include the
remaining way in a route relation .. I think most of this is the 'Great
Cliff Top Walk' route and that would then remove the double overlayed
ways. .
Thoughts/comments ???
