Wrong tags on Path

This entry ( sac_scale=* ) said: highway=footway In most cases footways are designated by footway traffic signs. Please do not use the footway tag for mountain hiking trail

Wrong tags on Path

Well, in the Wiki, it said “Use the highway=footway tag for mapping minor paths used mainly or exclusively by pedestrians.” Therefore, I thought it might be more appropriate to use “Path” + “sac_scale=hiking” for mountain hiking trails. I’m new to OSM editing, so I’m not sure which tagging is better.
