OK, maybe these have been raised before, but I'll raise them again.

1. I live in New Mexico, where some of the streets in some of the towns are actually dirt roads. I'm sure this is also the case in some part of the rural Midwest. The issue is how to describe them. Waze gives us two choices: Dirt roads/4x4 trails, or streets. I actually had a user submit a problem saying that the street was a dirt road, and wanted it changed! So, what's the proper label for this? Leave as a street, because it's named and has houses along it, or dirt road/4x4 trail, because that what it's a dirt road, but definitely not a 4x4 trail? I've also got a road near my town that is paved except for a two or three mile stretch, where it is dirt/gravel. Making this stretch a dirt road/4x4 would probably complicate directions, as Waze has a setting to avoid dirt roads when it probably means more like 4x4 trail. Really, I think there's a big gap between a dirt road and a 4x4 trail. I'd recommend Dirt/gravel road and 4x4 trail be separated.

2. I understand that Waze currently considers parallel but separate roads to be separate and not linked. Therefore, indicating "other lane" doesn't mean anything. So, anytime I would choose "other lane" to describe a location actually puts it on my left shoulder. This might be difficult for Waze to actually fix. What I believe would be a good compromise would be another location indicating "median" to indicate the space between the two parallel lanes. I often get police cars or broken-down cars in the median strip.
