Poll: how do you use tracktype?

[Hungerburg (Asa Hundert)]

If the documentation cannot clearly answer these kinds of questions or acknowledge regional variation, then leaving the wiki unchanged will continue to create confusion for both mappers and data consumers.

Well, in some other topic I stated, that I consider such and such a mandate to do just that and got one thumb down.

My personal favourite: Poll (hopefully better): Tracktype never dies! - #54 by SomeoneElse – I’d phrase it like that:

Key tracktype provides a simple classification of how convenient a track is to travel along in a vehicle. See table below for description of what the values each are.

PS: Regarding confusion, I guess Poll (hopefully better): Tracktype never dies! - #68 by ezekielf answers a lot about that. At least now I understand why people confused tracktype with a sibling of smoothness, that only maps a single scientifically provable (I doubt) aspect, but got confused when reading the linked documentation, which does not say such.
