If you feel that for example displaying bus stop names is a mistake, then feel free
to request removal as unwanted pet feature.

Or implement PR removing it.

The same goes for other changes that I made.

If I would be implementing my pet features then we would have display
of leisure=hackerspace, contraflow lanes and prominent marking of invalid
uses of name tag and marking that wikipedia tags should use secondary linking
like brand:wikipedia.

There is difference between "I care about it and I am willing to spend several
hours on it" and "pet feature" and I am mostly able to notice difference.

Displaying amenity=bicycle_parking was closest to promoting pet project.

Seriously, continuing this will just make harder to get people willing to expose to
that.
