Can this functionality be added back as a Windy Plugin maybe?

Today on World on Water again (sailing channel, english) as part of the RORC Transatlantic Race coverage there was 5 minutes of Windy from around the 11 minute mark in the video:

Here I managed to find the original article and video on the RORC website: http://rorctransatlantic.rorc.org/race-updates/weather-predictions-for-the-start-five-minutes-with-nacho.html

Windy is everywhere :)

So gentleman (and women), you now have a definitive reply regarding the positions of both Windy as well as OpenStreetMap on this type of situation so I hope that this is the end of the matter on this forum.

I understand that this remains a contentious issue from different perspectives, but Windy is primarily a weather site, so once again let's leave political topics out of the Windy forum please and focus on the discussion of weather.

Windy also does not wish to be a battleground for these type of disputes.
