You seem to not understand.
93% of this tags come from imports. Ich think 7% comes from import,
but edited by hand after, so current database not holds imporer user
name.

Sane people use type= for relation types.
They use water= tag to express whether it is lake, pond, river or
stream. Not how often it flows.

That is agreed on wiki. Other ways of tagging not documented on wiki at all.
