But it means bikers and pedestrians cannot be routed through, but will
be routed around that street, which wouldn't be necessary if
motor_vehicle=destination was meant.

That's mine, too.

After having read some short articles about the German sign
"Lieferverkehr frei" (free for delivery) I guess you are right. Then
translating it to =no is more correct than to =destination for mkgmap
within the limits of the Garmin access model.
One kind of traffic has to be disadvantaged and I guess that should
better be delivery than private traffic for the default style.

I don't think that's necessarily true, but don't have a feeling for how
the number of delivery traffic signs divide between those street types.
