I mixed this one up with the tree edits, but still from my perspective these kinds of edits border in the region between an import and an enthusiastic mapper. An enthusiastic mapper taking a lot of photos and mapping in OSM from those photos is core to OSM and we don't expect the data to be perfect. It's just on the other end where we have automated feature detection and automated imports, the potential to cause harm is much larger so we have https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines as a way to try and support imports while minimising the risk of harm.
