Is a ridge something that can be auto-generated from good

I think it's ok to map unnamed ridges, just to show that some
borders go
by them. Also, on a flat map without elevation lines, but with
semi-transparent overlay imitating shadows, peaks connected together
will make more sense. Right now, look at any mountaineous region,
the
peaks just stick out chaotically. I think it's worth connecting them
together.
What I mean is that if the ridges can be auto-generated, they can be
rendered without being in the database.
What data source are you suggesting that the renderer should use, if not the
OSM database?
The same one that the cycle map layer uses to draw contour lines.
