I completed tests on the impacts of a smaller osm2pgsql .style file
on rendering speed. As expected, it increases the rendering speed,
but it also does so by more than the percent reduction in database
size.
Eliminating columns not used in osm-carto decreased DB size by 0.28%
and increased rendering speed by 2.35%

Andy, do you think it's worth committing
https://github.com/pnorman/openstreetmap-carto/commit/93534f?
On the one hand, they're not used, on the other, I know we have requests
to use some of those tags, like public_transport, and it would feel odd
to remove them, then potentially add them back later.
