today I've been asked the following question :
I can understand the usecase:I have played around a bit with Maputnik.
I am looking to show more smaller roads in the map at a higher Zoom level.

The problem seems to be that Vector Maps API does not provide the layer for "display_class = 4" at a zoom level below 8.
Do you know if there is there a way to show "display_class = 4" roads at a zoom level 7 ( or smaller) ?
- Regional settings: In some regions the road network is not as dense as within populated areas in central Europe
- Analysis: Sometimes some analysis would be simplified with more data than usual just to identify the cause for an issue
Questions to DEV:
- Am I right?
- Would this be a meaningful extension?
