Comment from rskedgell
What was "incorrect" about the area:highway=* polygons which justified their outright deletion? T
I can see that there were some redundant area=yes tags which should have been deleted, but what was wrong with the geometries? -
Comment from Nathan_A_RF
These were added over 10 years ago, incomplete and no different from the ways already representing the roads around Ingatestone.

Comment from rskedgell
I wasn't aware that age or incompleteness were criteria for summary deletion.
Even if they were, mass deletion of these objects is not what a changeset comment of "Corrected tag issues around Ingatestone" suggests.
The area:highway polygons surrounding the highway lines are different, since they represent different things about the roads. You may consider them unnecessary duplication, but nobody is forcing anyone else to process geometries or tags for which they have no use.

Comment from Nathan_A_RF
Apologies, I should have mentioned it in the changeset. The areas did not give additional information in terms of tags nor geometry, as they were all linear and features such as turning circles are already mapped by nodes. Would you like me to update the road information around the town as compensation?

Comment from edvac
Dear Nathan_A_RF:
The area:highway=* tag is widely used worldwide in all continents, to tag areas occupied by different highways. There is some controversy with highways that have a constant width, that in that case it might be redundant, but anyhow, as user rskedgell points to you, you should always contact the involved users before you mass delete features/geometries that you may think aren't needed or too old, but they are actually quite normal and give information.
I guess many if not all of those geometries should be back in the map.
Best regards,
Rafael Avila Coya, on behalf of the OSM Foundation, Data Working Group.
