I fully agree with this argument and I also wrote a comment on the Wiki Talk page.
What do you thing about using main:forward, main:backward, alternative:forward and alternative:backward. Another problem is that whenever there the main trail has a forward or backward we automatically have two main trails what could be considered as alternative. However now you can still create a elevation profile from the main route. One for forward and one for backwards.
