I cannot find such suggestion. amenity=recycling is distinguished
into either recycling_type=centre or recycling_type=container,
and you can specify the material among others: recycling:scrap_metal=yes/no

Only used 4 times, should be changed as above.

When the related value has an underscore you should not introduce a
hyphen here.

But please follow the stream:

amenity=recycling   164677x
recycling_type=centre 8200x
recycling:scrap_metal 9000x
