Also, one more question:

" Data license: Public domain" - how we know this? 
Where it was specified? 

https://geodata.dep.state.fl.us/datasets/FDEP::current-landuse-landscape-support-index-lsi/about 
is missing indicator of that

(I posted also at OSM Wiki talk page)

> Step 6: Change desctiptive tags to OSM tags (see the table above), using find&replace

Custom validator rules with autoreplace may be a better idea. 
Depending on format: maybe some automated script?
If you are unfamiliar with programming I would recommend at least asking
(on Slack/Discord/IRC) after resolving all other issues
it should be relatively easy to implement it - there is chance that someone
has something easily adaptable or can write one.

What OSM calls "retail landuse" is often      called "commercial" zoning in the US, and what OSM calls      "commercial landuse" is often called "industrial parks" in the US.      Be careful that you're not making that mistake.

A distinction is made between normal            farmland and fallow (unused) farmland. Cutlines in forests            for power-/pipelines are precisely cut out, and so on. Which            tags in the original dataset have been changed to which OSM            tags is listed on the wiki page:>> https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Hiausirg/Florida_Landuse_Import#Tagging_Plans

Simply drag & drop into JOSM.
>>  5 days ago I already posted about this project in the            #local-florida Slack channel. I also wrote directly to            several people who map a lot in Florida. There was almost            only positive feedback about the data quality. The only            problem is that there are relatively often overlaps of roads            and land covers like natural=wood or similar. However, it            only happens with minor roads, and I don't think it's a big            problem per se.

Since the state is in most locations completely empty            (regarding landuses), this shouldn't take too long. Areas            with already good coverage (Jacksonville, Orlando,            Tallahassee & Gainesville) won't be touched.
