Or perhaps due to diligent mappers?

If the cap fits, why not?

These tags are far from "information-less" as they convey the fact that
a mapper has considered the property in question and wishes to record
that it does not apply. I also dislike this idea of "tags that actually
matter". Just because you might not be interested in a particular tag
(or value) does not mean that it is worthless to everybody.
