When someone claims former borders we can rely on the osm versions of them. There will be rules, you could not claim any border, but if there are significant, alternative, documented views (according to criteria which will have to be established), you could add them. A single consistent model of reality does not exclude the mapping of different claims for the same territory, rather the opposite it can be seen as a requirement for the faithful representation of the reality in certain areas to be able to map these claims.
