But no two set of posts etc., which would be assumed with your mapping.
I think two_sided=yes would work well:

My original question arouse from guardrails that separate a cycle path from
the road. The normal approach here is that the smooth "inner" side is
towards the car traffic and the rough side (support structure) towards the
cycle path. In the examples

That seems reasonable. I was responding to the idea, stated in the original
definition, that the right side of a guardrail would always be the inner
side of the guardrail, and the left side would always be outside. In
practice, guard rails can be present on either, or both, sides of a
roadway,

Depending upon which side of the road the guardrail is on, either the left
side or right side may be inner. If there is a distinct inner and outer
side, the inner side will always be towards the traffic.

Just draw a closed way. This also represents the reality since there
are two rails.

Often you find perfectly symmetric guardrails
