Who is using route=power?
It has no documentation except for a rather confusing Proposal page
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Power_routing_proposal/Tagging_similar_to_Transportation_routes)
but it's used 15,000 times.
Only used is very small parts of the world - as seen on taginfo map.

For contrast there are over 500,000 power=line in the data base,
and the use is world wide..

Is this feature actually useful and verifiable?
Not usefull.
Verifiable? As in there are power lines there, yes.
However I view them similar to roads .. there maybe a power line there .. but
'traffic' can be in both directions.
I see no point in having a dedicated 'route' for power.
