agree with others that using a Bot is not a safe way
to handle these problems. Could a script to extract
such unclosed polygons be proposed? This way, each
local community could take care to fix data for
their area, importing and examining the data in the
JOSM Editor. The Todo plugin could be used to go
through the items to correct.</font></div>

An unclosed polygon is an error ... and should be fixed. <br>
These can be detected using OSM Inspector. There are lots of them! <br>
<br>
Surely that is a higher priority than deleting duplicate tags from
ways that exist in relations (closed of not)? <br>
So go fix the unclosed polygons, that will have much more benefit to
the map than the deletion of duplicates.<br>
