Sorry I know I’m late, but was there any positive feedback?

I understand your intention to remove the inconsistent semantics in cave:ref vs name. But redefining a name tag that is already widespread used (22k objects) is tricky. I would suspect that many cave entrances have no specific names, particularly small caves with just one access.
So we should propose that cave:name is rendered in OSM-carto and considered in Nominatim. And somehow we have to re-tag the old „name" to „cave:name“ in an automated edit - dangerous ground ;)

OK, fully agreed.
