Yes, they are highway=path (see the yellow stripe at the tree). Also
they are already quite big. I originally wrote about 20-30 cm, the
ones in your example are 80-100 cm. They are probably also quite long
and not only shortcuts. In urban context it might be easier to
differentiate, especially in parks you will see the difference between
informal and formal path quite well (in the real world, in OSM they
will be treated mostly the same).

cheers,
Martin
