Comment from ElliottPlack
Hi Aleksey, I came across this edit because I-95, the busiest highway in the United States, does not carry any name between DC and Baltimore. It is simply "I-95" which is reflected in the route ref. Am I to assume this edit is related to Mapbox Mapping teams' support of road navigation? By local custom and OSM standard, names should not be applied to things that are not named. Nearby motorways may have names, e.g. The "Baltimore Washington Parkway" but I-95 most certainly does not. Please roll back this change. This has been discussed previously in OSM US slack (https://osmus.slack.com/archives/C2VJAJCS0/p1629488217256300). See also, https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Names#Names_are_not_for_descriptions
I look forward to your response.

Who the h* is the local user hereā¦? And just because they requested through Mapbox, you are going to accept without validation? Who are you?

Good afternoon Elliott! Thank you for the detailed explanation about the road names, it is very useful information. The road name plays a major role in Mapbox navigation, as well as the road number. There has been a slight misunderstanding in this situation. The incorrect edit has been rolled back. Thank you for your friendliness.
Regards Aleksey.
