Exit 0 is currently a hidden point name. Are you saying you think that should be reversed?

Exit 0 is currently a hidden point name.
I imagine that this is not 'exit 0', but a vestigial thing from the beginning of CHM where all routes (Interstates as that's all there was) had a shortcut to mark the whole thing clinched by putting 0 and 999 rather than having to look for specific point names.

...And I bet once the change to "crossroad" labels was made (by Tim himself?), this wasn't checked to see that it was a bona fide Exit 0.

As a staunch advocate of Exit 0's, I'm all in favor of making the switch if it's the right thing to do.  :)
