Is there any good reason to use this tag for wooden boardwalks rather than surface=wood
(over 168 000 uses)?
It seems to me that this tag is not really needed and to express that something is boardwalk like
CC-BY-SA-4.0 by Rhododendrites
you should rather use highway=footway bridge=yes surface=wood
and so on.
Note: mass replace with surface=wood
will not work, some small part of boardwalks is not made of wood but for example of a plastic.
