This is ultimately the same issue as the one raised by Martin the other day:

https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/tagging/2019-October/048533.html

There is no need to have railway=crossing, railway=level_crossing,
railway=tram_crossing and railway=tram_level_crossing. They are semantically
identical. The type of ways (tram or heavy rail, footpath or road) is
already expressed in the way tags and doesn't need to be duplicated in the
node tags.

Let's just standardise on the simplest tag, railway=crossing, and nuke the
others.
