[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] emergency=yes tag regarded as a feature instead of an access tag (#3170)

When querying features on osm.org, Overpass seems to regard features tagged with emergency=yes as emergency features instead of other features that simply have access for emergency services. I request a change to ignore emergency=yes when describing the feature, and instead focus on other main tags such as highway=*.

A good example is the Hoogstraat in Wageningen, which is a pedestrian highway:

With emergency=yes: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/297710230

Without emergency=yes: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/6921808

Kind regards,
