The flow rate will depend on the use. In this sense it comes closer to capacity (like the maximum parking space) rather than the flow of a river (average value, not the maximum "capacity" of a river). But this detail of vocabulary may not be very important.

The big difference is if you don't have a pump, TODAY you can avoid all hydrants that have no tag type/pressure/water_source. Your proposal changes the current meaning since you want that hydrant mean "always with pressure" 10% of hydrants in France don't have a type/pressure/water_source tag and the current meaning is "maybe with pressure, maybe not" a lot of them are classified as pressure=suction, the most common value in France, this shows that this is a common case. If you decide tomorrow to change their meaning, error rate with "unknown pressure" will be significant. This is a regression. I thing it is important : - either to have a solution for those 10% - either to remove the "meaning change" from the proposal and talk this point separately to have a unanimous consensus with the current proposal. The sentence "pond will be deprecated" could be removed or change to "fire_hydrant=pond is controversial, some believe it is needed to not spit hydrant depending on the pressure, some believe that it should be replaced by emergency=suction_point. In both case, add water_source=pond."
