Is there a problem here?

Personal knowledge can provide a level of detail in mapping simply unavailable elsewhere.
I mean, the iD editor has “Local Knowledge” as one of predefined options for changeset sources. This is just that, except… less local. :)
exactly, OSM is meant to be based on original surveys rather than external sources, and something like “knowledge” or “local knowledge” is a perfectly fine thing to indicate as a source if you mean “I’m familiar with the area and am very confident that my changes are correct although I have not specifically surveyed it just to make these changes”.
