I think that basically everyone agreed with this

Some folks have removed my 'abandoned:railway=rail' tags as being "redundant" to 'railway=abandoned' when the abandoned:railway tag indicates whether an abandoned line was a rail line, tram line/trolley line, light rail, narrow gauge line, etc.

+1 (railway=abandoned abandoned=rail would be needed to be actually carrying the
same info - and even then such "cleanup" is quite dubious in general)

(but for example removal of stuff=water tag from natural=water areas likely would be fine)
(I hope that this abandoned:railway=rail has still some remains in terrain if it mapped)
