        Regarding the original question -- in what circumstances are

        mapping practice -- what would be your answer?


    Always

    Doesn't that violate

No.  The route traverses the way, it's not the way.

Okay. But surely this doesn't mean that every named footway or path
should be part of a route relation.

The bike trail that brad linked to,
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/6632400 -- I've never been there
but I don't offhand see any reason to call it a route. (Brad has been
there, I assume, because it looks like he updated it 2 days ago.)
There's no information in the relation tags that isn't also on the way
itself. Is there any benefit to creating a route relation in cases like
this?
