"So it would be "jointed large rounded natural stones cut to a flat top"? Smoothness similar to setts, but appearance similar to cobblestones?
Also, [1] describes some pavements as "Cobbles chosen for flat upper surface" which is possibly not the same as being cut, but possibly what is meant by "flattened" in OSM. Then, for contrast, it also describes another pavement as "Cobbles laid prominently" which is possibly what the first users of surface=cobblestone:flattened thought that surface=cobblestone meant - the current image in the wiki suggests they are not that prominent [2]. The Wikipedia article on cobblestones [3] begins with the same image [4] that is used in the OSM wiki for cobblestone:flattened [5], then presents an image of the more prominent type [6]." +1 I think the definition surface=cobblestone:flattened needs to be improved,redefinited, so that definition and photo would fit. Tags with surface=cobblestone:flattened are not too much. Regards Slavo
