This is just deflection. I genuinely fail to comprehend your aversion to 
amended existing data.

This discussion is part of the process.
The "technical preparation" is an already written Overpass routine, a 
bit of 'find & replace' in a text editor & a JOSM upload. Not difficult. 
Performed by UK contributors previously using similar techniques. Spent 
/far/ more time talking about it here that it would take to perform.
I suspect If I had actioned it without opening this discussion you 
wouldn't have blinked an eye.
