It will hardly be more reliable than its definition can be universally applied? 
We are discussing accuracy of tracktype tagging when the whole tracktype 
tagging scheme differs from region to region and even mapper to mapper.

Maybe in Germany it is sorted out now whether this is commonly regarded to be 
about surface quality, Ausbauzustand (construction standard) or 
Erhaltungszustand (state of conservation/maintenance), or maybe a mix of 
different factors, but I would question whether such local conventions can be 
internationally expected to be the same.

This is of course also a point against performing such classification in areas 
where you do not know the on the ground situation, both physically and the 
local mapping conventions.
