I wonder why US States are tagged as admin_level=4, wouldn't it be more
consistent with the rest of the map to have them tagged as level 3?
Based on which uses of admin_level=3? A quick scan of the wiki shows
admin_level=4 as states or provinces for several countries.
I guess the biggest reason they are admin_level=4 now is, "that seemed
like the way to go in 2009"[1], but that wouldn't prevent a change for
a compelling reason.
i guess i'd like to hear if anyone has a compelling reason. it wouldn't
be that hard to change (there aren't that many states), but what do
we gain from the change?
