I agree with you. Every single map of my city I've seen has some "planned roads" where in reality we have a forest or something else. These roads are in the "oficial map" of the city plan made by the authorities and are promptly copied to comercial maps. I think we should map only things that are clearly in the construction phase, and of course use a tag to indicate this.
