Historically, the "standard" style was a "for mappers" style - it was designed to show features that mappers had mapped. That has been changing (largely without community involvement or review). I tried
That is exactly what I would expect! There are few nice themed styles on the main page, but no such "working" map. It doesn't need to be ugly, but its functionality for mappers must come first.
It seems like the end goal is something a bit like what the Mapquestion Open style already provides (a summary of road information, not much else), which seems a curious design decision given that Mapquest Open tiles are already available as a style on the front page.
MapQuest Open is the only map style I never truly understood - it's a general purpose map, while others have their purpose stated clear in the name. What were the reason behind taking it on board, does anybody know? OpenSeaMap or anything like this would better complete the set of maps we can use from the main page, this one is just duplicating the purpose of our default map.
I have no preference which general map should be default - the "beauty" one or the "working" one - but two "beauty" maps and no "working" one makes no sense to me. When I act as an end-user of OSM, I want better search and additional services (routing is what I miss the most), not the nicer rendering. When I act as a mapper, I want to simply see all my tags.
