A gravel area tag/tagging convention is needed. One use I’ve seen is
highways in particular seem to have gravel separator between the actual
road and usually grass. Standardizing a area (a way) with just the
surface=gravel tag could work.

I actually just found that article about OSM’s problems.
One of the major topics mentioned, the fact that OSM acts as a database and
not a map, and that this acts as a hinderance to the expansion and
development of the project, is very true.
As a result, I’ve came to think that implementing Vecto

Yes, but the range in size of lakes is massive (local ones compared to the
Great Lakes in the U.S.). You wouldn’t want the names of smaller lakes
showing up at lower zoom levels like the Great Lakes should.
If one was to establish a rendering difference, they should probably do so
by computing the
name>=*s of Ways. However, I think
osm-carto *should* render and *prefer* to render Relation names for Cycle
routes over the names of the Ways. The Editors should also somehow
influence users to map Relations for Cycle routes instead of naming them.
Thoughts?

May I ask why not source=*? I know it's basically depreciated, but many
times I find myself wondering where past mappers got the info for a route
(this happened just today). I would find it very helpful. It also doesn't
require the tagging of all of the ways.

Yes, the History button does do a good job. But I'm talking about this:

Your message is a bit confusing at first but I think you are proposing that
relations and super-relations should be used more-often to reduce the
complexity of processing data for data consumers?
In that case, I wou
I agree with Dave F.
It's a duplicate.

You could add a `note=*` to every element. You should probably contact the
mappers of that region and explain to them not to add them.
I agree that in this case, mapping animal tracks is *especially *necessary.

Those are known as rumble strips.
The wiki has traffic_calming=rumble_strip:

There is no page for the tag though, differentiating the types of rumble
strips there are.
For examples, I’ve seen them on:
