Why?

The reasoning I've been given so far is for routing, but to find such 
information routing software would have to look at all nodes near by until it 
found the node tagged with the place information.

The information I've reviewed so far shows at least one airport tagged as a 
place, and a whole bunch of other information wrong or contradictory or you 
name it someone has probably done it.
