We can conclude that the English description of being a dead hedge is
a misnomer.
How is that conclusion reached?
The term 'dead hedge' appears to be legitimate. And to me they are
barriers in that they are not something I'd like to walk over.
So we could propagate the German term Benjeshecke [2] to be used as
benjes_hedge, named after the inventor Hermann Benjes [3].

Surely that depends on what is being tagged.
