I propose to automatically remove guest_house=guest_house from
tourism=guest_house
These are tautological taggings that add nothing and seems to be result
of iD interface design.
Sometimes there is field encouraging to fill it and often
it can be left empty. But one of values means nothing and iD auto
filling suggested it, so people keep adding it. And it ended in
suggestion because it was tagged few times, so become listed without
human review.
And then become one of top suggestions and people started repeatedly
adding it. I propose to remove two such tags from any objects where
they add nothing useful at all Yes, these can be removed via validators
in editors or manually. But each such removal needs to be done
manually, which is wasting human attention and effort. Especially given
scale of these two. Removal of these tags will make tagging of affected
objects more clear and it will fix suggestions in iD by removing these
entries from suggested ones.
Edit would be rerun in future from time to time.
