OpenStreetMap
I saw a road that was a bit of a mess, so I tried to clean it up. There were 2 paths overlapping, so I performed a few cuts to a way to cut the duplicate overlapping stuff, so now, 'The Castings' is split into 3 parts.
Merging the center part of 'The Castings' creates a zig-zag road which is worse.
It seems that the merge feature is trying to merge the ways toe to toe, or head to head, rather than head to toe.

Yep, it's a known issue which we've fixed but not deployed the fix yet.
