Should “source:*=Maa-amet 2021” tag be duplicated onto elements (buildings) and if so, under which subkey (source:geometry?), or would “source=Maa-amet 2021” on changeset suffice? Previous address imports have added source:addr to each building and also regular source tag on changeset.

I really, really, really dislike such debris on objects. Especially as it is often stale anyway - people
updating building shape based on aerial/survey rarely remove such tags.

Though please ignore me if local community has a different preference. 

It is also a personal preference that is (I think) well motivated, not OSM rule.

I suspect that reason for that is that it is easier to spot runaway script damaging data?

For technical side: interrupt script after it made N edits, then restart it the next day?
Or sleep for N seconds after each edit?

When I run bot edit it typically sleeps one minute after every changeset
(that are grouped into groups of close edits).

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Maa-amet_building_geometry_update seems OK

Though I think that adding LIDAR based height data should be mentioned in summary
posted here

Seems to be a good idea.
