I was about to fix a mistake I caused in the map due to these
contradictions in the wiki, then I found a problematic case [1].

According to PTv2, this route needs to be broken into two, one per
direction, and a route_master relation must be created for them.
Without the forward/backward roles, I believe applications will not be
able to easily find out the direction of travel of either since the
route contains a single way, unless they parse the from and to tags,
which are not required to match station names.

Would this be a deficiency of PTv2?
