Yes, the mixing does muddy the waters. On the other side:
The mechanical edit is touching objects that had pre-existing pending
cleanup. These are not edits that require local knowledge. Uploading
these in one changeset is less version churn.
In some cases it's typos (

) in some cases it's modernizing tagging such as moving away from the
"type" key used by relations (for example moving type=deciduous to
leaf_cycle=deciduous). Since this is really a "semi mechanical edit",
there's careful human review.

To be clear:
Initial post to the mailing list involved: *removing useless fixmes*
Based on list feedback, the discussion shifted and was focused on one task: *
remove denotation=cluster along with the fixme* (the fixme was in fact
recognized as flag for the bad data).
On the table now: * performing remaining needed cleanup on objects that
will be edited anyway*
The problems with denotation=cluster have been widely discussed (years ago
and recently). It means "non-special tree".
The original bot author does not agree with the mechanical edit, and wishes
natural=tree to be reserved for special trees.
