#3In summary: Because OSM requires work and care to be put into the data submission plan, which isn’t worth it.
A project like OSM would be bombarded with spam and junk submissions if it didn’t have these barriers to submission. Understandable.

#5This makes sense, but I wish there was a generally accepted way to share geospatial data and POI data against OSM IDs. e.g. I want to be able to add overlays for noise level, etc. and I find the whole thing too fragmented. The OSM way seems to be the right way, but no one seems to do it. You just maintain your own DB with an optional OSM POI entity identifier etc.
I suppose if you want something badly enough you have to do it yourself, but it's not that the thing doesn't exist though it doesn't seem to. It's that I want others to want it too :)

I highly doubt that. What tells do you see that lends to probability of it being llm generated content?
Is it possible that we (myself included) have become conditioned to think content is llm generated as the default opinion?

#7I appreciate OSM for maintaining a higher data quality bar than other projects (Overture places are mostly junk outside of USA), but it's also just artificially limiting itself by not allowing streamlined paths to data contributions.

The way the text flows, the section headings that have zero creativity...

The streamlined path has always been to verify your contributions in the field. Everything else is of dubious quality.

#10OSM needs a way to ingest "signals" instead of edits.
