@Kovirii I agree with your latest update of way 437189759. That said, keeping outdated name=...(closed) on objects would be unhelpful in most cases. An exception I can think of is https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/373633500, where the words "Ex Cinema" are literally on a sign on the building. 

Some ways were indeed completely deleted, because there was no valuable info left, for example a closed camp site with only a POI tag and name tag. I don't see a reason to turn OSM into OHM. 

I appreciate your feedback.

@silversurfer @dieterdreist The "cleanup of this scale" consists of 105 edits. Nobody is going to email you for a stamp of approval each time they make 105 map edits.
