Are you referring to smoothness=bad or a narrow width? (I'm guessing you've been using StreetComplete to specify each.)

But to answer your question, absolutely. In fact, Waze's reporting is why Google bought out abs address those features to Google Maps.

BRouter and other routing engines can use attributes like surface and smoothness (and probably width) to calculate routes.

Possibly not "companion" per se, but Every Door is available for iOS and MapComplete can run in browser. Go Map!! can provide more detailed editing.

I never said it was exceptional, quite the opposite, I'm saying many countries have border disputes.
Interesting that you don't seem to care about my other examples, Gaza or Crimea. Got a soft spot for China?

What a weird response. I was addressing your comment. You didn’t mention Palestine and Crimea should be returned to the Crimean Tatars, both Slavic peoples are invaders.

That’s incredible.
I was quite conservative back in 2006, having been raised that way and still years away from my “enlightenment,” but I knew Colbert was satire. I still thought he was hilarious. I’ve always thought it’s important to be able to laugh at yourself.
Bush clearly felt the same, he was laughing right along with the roast, and had just finished doing a bit with a Bush impersonator that also roasted him.
But Trump is incapable of humility, and cannot stand the traditional presidential roast at the Press Correspondents’ Dinner.

Oh whoops, it must have been a different post in this thread that I mentioned Gaza.
you would rather play the Sinophobia and Yellow Perilism card and assume that I receive Xi bucks.
I've said nothing of the sort. That sounds like deflection.

Holy shit, I never found smoothness in the OSM editor. Does that actually effect routing priority?
That might be a game changer for making my local area much better on OSM.

Well as a planet pluto was mini mini. As a dwarf planet Pluto is one of the mightiest.
Also, if you call Pluto a planet then it's not fair to Eris and they've done nothing wrong

I cannot believe they bent on this at all. This isn't the will of the people or a problem we asked to solve it is the asinine rantings of a fucking baby. Why the fuck am I stuck in this timeline holy shit.

Google; we're still calling it Twitter you think we're gonna start calling it Gulf of America just because a doofus says so?

I'll keep an eye out for a firefox plugin to change it back.

Why would google, a company of such unfathomable power and reach, be fearful of Trump? They can say no and it won't affect their bottomline much.

Fearful, or in agreement with?

Google, or rather Alphabet, is an American company. Trump is the president of America, the most powerful country militarily and economically. Alphabet is also subject to American laws and is currently under an anti-trust lawsuit with America. What makes you think Google can stand up against the US?

The only thing they care about is money. If their bottomline doesn't benefit, they don't do.
Unless the CEOs are worried they'll have a Trump supporter shoot them dead and then be immediately pardoned and released by Trump.

I mean if Turkey can just decide to change it's name and everyone has to respect it (not me Turkey it is), I don't see why this is different

Yes. The United States Board on Geographic Names is the group within the Department of the Interior which handles these matters. They are a part of the executive branch. I suspect that you can follow a chain of delegated authorities through that board, up the civil service hierarchy, landing on the desk of the President.
This is an example of the system not accounting for, or being ambivalent about, the election of someone to that office with a fascist ideology.
