How are they different? If I have a oneway=yes way:
A--->B
oneway:bicycle=no tells me that bicycles can pass along this way A->B
and B->A
exactly the same case if there is any of the tags:
cycleway:[left|right|both|none]:oneway=[-1|no]
They tell me the same thing. The point of this discussion is what the
*preferred* method should be not how many different ways there are to
tag the same piece of information. My point is simply why should mappers
be told to prefer the less used and less likely to be consumed option
rather than the much more common option?

No it doesn't. What infrastructure, if any, is provided for cyclists is
described by the cycleway=* tag. So in this case if that tag is
accompanied by:
cycleway:left=shared
then there is no dedicated cycling infrastructure.
