I have told you exactly how to verify the shape of a strait/bay area just by using even simpler operation (connecting the dots). So the area is verifiable now, just because the operation is also fully verifiable - isn't it? Everything starts with assuming we know the borders of this area, which is the source of all verifiability problems - not the operations. > (which by the way is against the goals of OSM-Carto even if your > opinion on this has merit). I don't see any support for your opinion about it, there's nothing about rendering polygons being bad (or good) in the goals you wrote. > You can try to justify that all you want - > this does not change anything about the argument i gave against it - > that the polygon drawing almost never adds any verifiable information > on the geographic reality compared to a node or a linear way > representation. You did not answer basic question, which helps to show how verifiable is a node in the middle of some area: how do you measure a precise middle of the completely unknown shape? (If you don't have some other, hidden assumptions, which would be a problem in itself.) > I can just hope most mappers will emancipate themselves from > this and not invest their time and energy in mapping and maintining > polygon mazes over coastal waters. When I edit any big city I find a lot of way and polygon mazes (a lot of crossing lines). Maintaining them is a real problem I face from time to time, yet nobody has proposed to remove them and use nodes instead. Water areas will never be that bad in this respect, they are much simpler. -- "Excuse me, I have some growing up to do" [P.
