I set the exit_hint only on exits directly from motorways because hints
on parallel lines should be created from the destination tags.
So have a look on the following junction:
===E====================================
\ /
-------e----------------------
\
\destination=Berlin
=== motorway
--- motorway_link
E exit node on motorway
e exit node on motorway_link
So and exit_hint is created only for E because after you have passed E
the Garmin should tell you the correct destination which is usually
written on the signs in the motorway junction (in Germany...).
If an exit hint would also be created for e you would see the
destination only after passing e and that's too late.
The motorway junctions if have analyzed did have the same tags on E and
e so there is no additional information.
