[Talk-us] Spot elevations collected as natural=peak and name=Point (height in feet)

[Mike Thompson]

It seems that there are a couple of mappers in Colorado US (at least,
perhaps mapping in other areas as well) who are adding spot elevations
(presumably from USGS Topo maps) to OSM tagging them as
natural=peak
name=Point (elevation in feet)

For example:
https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/4601119717

What does the community think about this?

natural=peak might be ok if said spot elevation is really a local high
point (some are not).  The name I am less sure of. If this belongs on the
map at all, it should probably have an ele tag, with value in meters.
