As Martin says "traffic_sign is about a traffic sign, the highway=*
tags are features of a highway".

Highway=stop and highway=give_way indicate the position of the
distinctive road markings. 

It would very wrong to make the assumption that the existence of either
implies there is a sign, whilst highway=stop is  rare in my part of the
world, give_ways are very common and it is quite common in built up
areas for there to be only road markings and no sign.
