I disagree with that. capital=yes is ambiguous and capital=2 should be preferred Mapnik rules can be changed as time allows. I wouldn't be surprised capital=yes isn't really used only on "capital=2" cases. When there are more than one admin_centre, perhaps we could simply use the role "label" instead of the role "admin_centre". It is currently used in states to indicate where to place the node of the state name, because the administrative centre of a state tends to be the same as it's capital city administrative centre.
