Oops, sorry for spam, but nearby I spotted a convenient example of the
alternative approach: one way that serves as both administrative
boundary and river.

In practice, having two independent ways actually renders worse,
because they tend to criss-cross each other arbitrarily. In the

Thanks Michael and Liz.
I've been thinking about this for a while, and putting off mapping many of
the streams/rivers in the Sierra Mountains because of this uncertainty.
It seems that there is no general consensus, so I would like to propose
what I think is the best trade-off:
I think that if

We are, whether it is a good thing or not.
Go back to how we define a cycleway (German vs English)

I'd prefer relations. Duplicating the line to offset is borderline
micro-mapping; I don't think micro-mapping is practical in a lot of cases
right now.

I have several cases where a border polygon (national park, wilderness,
etc.) is defined based on a natural feature, such as a
stream/crestline/etc.
What is the preferred way to handle this dual-purpose way?
Splitting the border way, creating a relation of the border pieces, and
adding the natur
