A painted line that has the legal status of "do not cross" is a
perfectly fine reason to have a separate way.
it doesn’t apply to many people though, for example pedestrians or emergency
vehicles.
I have seen emergency vehicle cross physical barriers.
So by extension physical barriers should not be mapped. Which would be
ridiculous.
The definition for a separate highway way is that it implies a separate
carriageway. We’ve set it like this. IMHO it can hardly put into discussion at
this point. If you want to map by a different definition, safest would be to
use a different key.
The definition of 'separation' relies on the local definition?
If there is a need to map barriers that provide emergency use .. then perhaps
OSM should tag that with a different key.
If there is a requirement to distinguish between barriers of (leagl) paint and
those of some height .. use the height key for those of some height.
The tag already exists and would provide emergency vehicles with information -
a highway patrol vehicle may not cross something with height=.2 but a police
4WD rescue vehicle could.
