The point being if someone wanted to search for the nearest effluent
dump, it would be much easier to search for a single tag, not multiple
tags.
Any effluent dump may also have a waste oil dump / normal rubbish dump
nearby as well, making the tags a bit messy and hard to search for.
"amenity=waste_disposal" starts to become ambiguous if there is no
"waste" tag to go with it.
In my opinion it would be a bit tidier without the waste tag, and have
extra "amenity" tag options.
