A user in Europe started adding long bus lines some time ago. These routes are crossing several countries and mostly drive along motorways. Here is a piece of motorway between Berlin and Dresden:

https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/313980637

it has two road routes, and 13 Flixbus bus routes. I think this can't be sustainable. If all bus companies started adding these routes, we could have a hundred or more relations on motorway ways.

Are there any recommendations about routes like this on the wiki? I think they should be mapped as relations with only stations in the relation.

What are your thoughts?

I have had the same idea before.
Mainly because some of these operators have non-fixed routes between their stations. They are able (either on the discretion of the driver or dispatching) to choose between different roads based on traffic, and will frequently do so.

This is not compareable to long distance trains, which will only in rare cases deviate from their standard route, mainly because the train network is so much sparser.
