A suggestion:

That could be:
** a higher classification prevails (US over state)
** the continuous route prevails (if route x uses part of route y to get
to it's next section, then route y is used).
** the number closed to 0 prevails
I disagree. The semi-colon delimiter should be used. I doubt people could
remember which rule to apply, and I don't agree it should be applied
anyway, as for any particular roadway, the name by which it is colloquially
known is inconsistent. CA example:
I-215 shares routing with SR-60 for a few miles. People in the area still
consider it SR-60. It is tagged ref="CA 60;I 215".
SR-79 shares routing with I-15 for a few miles. People in the area still
consider it I-15. It is tagged ref="I 15;CA 79".
These actually conform with the second rule above (and the third, but
that's entirely coincidental), but I'm sure I can find counter-examples.
