There were several clients that did not attempt to connect the ways of each NHD linestring so there are duplicated nodes and ways that touch but aren't joined. Hopefully fixing this is what Paul was talking about.
Agreed - this is a safe case of duplicate node removal: when all items touching duplicate nodes are of type hydro - river, stream, lake, reservoir, etc (I forget the exact tag names).
Just combining segments within the same reach code will frequently produce ways containing > 500 nodes, which makes editing more complicated, and does not make any improvement to the usability of the map data.
