What's the advantage of making the Burnaby Mountain Conservation Area a relation with three members? It had been mapped as a single way marking the outer boundary for 7 years.

I think I was trying to separate the scrub ground cover by creating way 1209175050 from the existing 102355693. I probably just split at the nodes (8412872122 and 366497349) and iD split all the ways and relations and not just the scrub I was working on.
I recombined the ways in changeset 102355693.
Does it make a difference how many ways are used to create an area? I have never paid attention to this part of the data model.
Thanks, Joel

Thanks for your answer Joel. I think it's good not to over complicate things. I think it's good to represent areas with simple outlines as a single trace. If we used multiple ways in relations to represent everything that can be represented as a single way it would become much harder to edit the map, because it'd be harder to see how it's structured.
Additionally, by changing it to a relation, it made the edit history harder to find, it only part of one of the ways making up the relation.
It's not a big deal, but I personally consider unnecessary relations to be not as good an approach. In all honesty I don't know what the consensus is.
Thanks for recombining the ways, deleting the relation, and making sure the history remained intact. It looks good.
