That in a project to create an up to date map, there are people involved
who get upset over things changing is, indeed, weird.

Yes, latest update date can be a hint
but treating it is as an argument to avoid
making an edit is really weird to me.

I'm in no way supporting the proposal, but this argument of 'it'll
make the entities look fully up to date" is illogical. If taken to
it's conclusion, nothing will ever be update again.
It's false to think that just because an entity was amended
yesterday, it means it's up to date:
If a typo in a road's name is amended, but the road is left
incorrectly tagged as 'tertiary' instead of 'primary' it's not up
to date.
Likewise an entity previously amended 10 years ago doesn't mean
it's inaccurate.

Doing this would make over 3M objects have their date updated to
the present, when the last meaningful change may have been over 5
years ago.
It creates the illusion of data being up-to-date when all that
was changed was a tag key.

But would it be so impossible? (Not suggesting that it should
actually be done!)
Couldn't a bot be set to simply find all cases of man_made=,
regardless of what it is, & change them to human_made=,
similar to using Find & Replace in a Word document?
& no, as you can see, I don't understand the technicalities
behind it all, so please be gentle with explaining that I'm
an idiot! :-)
Thanks
