This is a strawman argument.

The basis of OSM is that anyone can edit anything for any reason, as
long as it's not infringing someone else's copyright and isn't
malicious.

Furthermore there is a lot of bots doing a number of various different
things, obviously they haven't been banned so their edits must not be
undesirable.

If people had followed the recommendations of the map features page in
the first place this wouldn't even be an issue.
