[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Increase may key and value max length (#2025)

Hmm, is this a real argument? What is the basic concept of tags, and why does it make sense for OSM to adhere to that definition of this basic concept of tags?

It is a matter of fact that there are approved and widely used definitions for tags that contain structured data, which can also become quite long, as we see. If you think that these things have no place in OSM and looking how well established these tags are, does that mean that you are unhappy with the general direction OSM has taken?
