What though if «Sidewalk Joy spot» is a proprietary category, not fully derivable from what can be observed at the spot, and thus not from aspects that would belong² in OSM data?
Then, while in that case the fact that a spot is a «Sidewalk Joy spot» shouldn't be included in OSM, one could still make an OSM-based map that shows these spots by overlaying them over OSM, either by an own (web-)application, or more easily with https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/

@PeterSommerlad@mastodon.social @mikill@mastodon.world ²OpenStreetMap has some exceptions to the observable-on-the-ground rule, namely for administrative boundaries, ocean names and other important information, but I don't think «Sidewalk Joy spot» would qualify for any such exception. 7/7
