Wow, fast response!

I think deleting and redrawing features is less desirable from OSM guidelines on keeping history but it’s not a big deal when there was just a basic outline to begin with or the routing is just temporarily broken. I am concerned about how it can bring some issues, for example losing info that isn’t carried to new geometry or features that get overlooked in redrawing.

As an example, https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/864040209/history was deleted but the detail tags didn’t make it to the new geometry. Or https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1180249804/history was deleted without any replacement. There are others like this, and sorting out which is good/bad becomes difficult without being able to track history of a feature.

I do look forward to seeing your Uptown address work. I’ve started filling in some POIs and details but having good addresses to anchor on would be helpful.
