I suspect that most editors' preset schemes aren't driven entirely by 
what tags are "approved" and what aren't.  iD has historically used 
previous usage, so for example values suggested for the key "building" 
match https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/building#values .  JOSM 
uses a different list of curated values, but defaults to what the 
current mapper has used most recently.

For a new "historic" node, JOSM out of the box doesn't offer "creamery" 
or "ogham_stone", and it wouldn't really make sense for it to do so, 
since there are relatively few of either (even unmapped) around the 
world compared to the other historical suggestions already on JOSM's list.

Best Regards,

Andy
