There are many types of roads that it's not possible to describe. How

you tag an unpaved classified road so the map shows that it's unpaved

Use the surface tag.  Using multiple tags to describe a way, instead of simply 
the highway tag, lets you describe more details.  In turn, renderers should 
look at more than just the highway tag.

I agree. It was a rhetorical question.
