Like it or not, iD has more influence on tagging than this list or carto
does.  If
iD decides a certain tag should be used in preference to an alternative, or
that
dual-tagging should happen, then that's what happens.  Only in the case of
very strong objections will iD undo some change it decided to make without
consultation with anybody else.

As I said, OSM doesn't do joined-up thinking.  It would be nice if it did.
