I messaged you about some questions on some of these edits and the alignment issues on the image base you used.

Hi! I was using Bing maps when I made the adjustments. Since you're actively working in this area, I'll leave it be so you can do what you need to. Please feel free to revert any changes I made. I've noticed other areas I've edited where the roads, buildings, etc don't line up with the map image. I play games that use OSM's data. A few months ago my avatar was no longer on the road/sidewalk, so I've been adjusting OSM with the Bing images. It's worked well in my area, but I'll stop making changes to Washington so you can do what you need to. Sorry if I caused you any extra work.

I can fix things and i needed to look through this area again anyway to update things due to changes and new map labels and tags that better depict things. General idea is to use the most common offset in an area for images and adjust others to it along with keep offset of detailed areas. Wanted to help you out with this advice since its likely not something you noticed. I got into this through games but also want to help for other apps that use this data, and note theres often offset in apps on location, especially in crowded areas where buildings mess things up.
