Description

When noexit=yes is placed on a node that connects to two highway=* ways, the validator doesn't detect it as error. It is possible to make a single click fix but I'm not sure if there are any edge cases. firefox_Pkh3RLyaac

Research direction
Inspect the validator code for noexit=yes and identify why it does not trigger when the node connects to two highway=* ways. Look for existing tests and add a test case that covers this scenario.
