One option is to use the lua tag processing features. That gives you a lot
of flexibility in determining what to import into the database.

It mostly allows you to transform tags, e.g. for normalisation, but it also
allows you to filter based on tags which objects are added to the rendering
tables (and if they should be treated as polygons or lines)

If you don't want any points in your rendering tables, then you can simple
make the lua function "filter_tag_nodes" (
https://github.com/openstreetmap/osm2pgsql/blob/master/style.lua#L71 )
return 1. In this case all nodes get discarded from the points table.
