Hi,
This is about OSM ticket https://trac.openstreetmap.org/ticket/5163:
> The rendering of highway=path and highway=track is barely distinguishable.

Ahem! Am I blind, is it just me or what?
This is @

Look at Le Stockis : residential -> track -> path transitions in the
circles where they meet.
Compare with the IGN map on the right.
Ask anyone without hinting them by the topology which is track and which
is path.

The tracks you see are one in the forest and the other an access to a
meadow.
Are you suggesting to tag them for the renderer as unclassified?

OSM is fun!
"don't tag for the renderer, ask for a fix" they keep repeating, and
here's the result.
Isn't this request sensible?
Anyone backing it?
Please reopen.
Cheers,
André.
