If we were to use description in a formalized way (A to B, or A to B via C), 
where would we put actual free form descriptions ?

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:description

“The description=* tag can be used to provide additional information about the 
related element to the end map user, possibly using a pop-up or similar. Text 
should be kept short; a few words or perhaps one to three sentences at most. 
Longer information can be provided by tagging a link to Wikipedia or other 
external website”


this doesn’t look as if it was the right tag for what we want to tag here
