Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't bannered routes pretty much the
reason for the "modifier" tag?

Yes, they are, and I would not object to ref=17 modifier=Truck, except that you run into problems with an alternate route that's signed with a suffix - ref=70A with no modifier doesn't include the information that it's a modified version of another route, and ref=70 modifier=A would be unclear as to how the A modifies the 70 (it could be 70-A).
