Yes, one ring (one key=one value) for all kind of public transports because it is easier to say this key and then what kind of transport do you have in. It's better: public_transport=stop_position or public_transport=platform and then bus,tram,train,subway,ferry,helicopter,UFO, future's vehicles.

I’m normally not in favor of semi-colon separated values, but this seems like a situation where it is better, since there would be hundreds or thousands of keys otherwise. eg =Medicare;Medicaid;Blue_Cross (USA) =BPJS_Kesehatan;Papua_Sehat (Indonesia) It will still be hard to keep this sort of dat
