I agree with the reasons given by Roland although I would not write them
that harsh.

There is another reason why I oppose. The proposals suggests the usage
of light_rail=yes and route=light_rail but the Public Transport version
2 schema it is based on does not contain the route type "light_rail".
That type was added after the voting (not by the author of the
proposal). I don't really know why the original proposal does not
contain this type but "light_rail" was abused a lot at that time
(2010/2011), mainly for many German S-Bahn systems which are normal trains.

Thank you, user Weide, for pointing me to this issue.
