What's wrong with multiple, non-nested relations? - I'm not saying we
need a route master.
1. weak point in case of rerouting: a beginner may move only one route;
more work
How often does a PT route get rerouted compared to shops shutting down
and popping up?
2. lack of the option to duplicate a route in the entry-level software
Until this gets fixed, mappers will spend twice the time. That is bad,
but a software that is considered entry-level needs not support the more
complicated standards. Compare Notepad and MS Word.
3. lack of the need in the majority of cases (other cases: roles should
be enough*)
See my other posts.
4. incompatibility with present mapping standards, I mean printed maps
-> two routes per line may seem strange to beginners
If you're talking about printed map standards - they aren't really
comparable to OSM and its richness of detail.
