i'll admit, the voting proposal scheme seems a bit odd, but some
things are important in this partcular proposal:

1. voting was open for 8 months
2. the no votes pointed out that there were a lot fo unanswered points
3. it's a (sort of) duplicate of sport=swimming

if it had solely been 11 yes votes and 3 no votes, i would have put it
in the approved features page, but the proposal makes no sense at all,
so that would be bad.
there's no reason it can't be proposed again, coupled with making
sport=swimming obsolete which would probably be best because it's such
a muddled mess

if you would like to change the voting numbers, there's no reason it
can't be discussed, as with anything else on osm
