Plausible deniability is not the reason.
Either
(1) it is clear that we can do that
without copyright and copyright like
issues and then we can freely ignore
whatever data provider likes it or not
(2) it is not ok to do this in OSM
Reason for not creating such notes
automatically is for example fact that
notes are not supposed to be created
automatically - we have differentÂ
tools for that such as JOSM validator,
StreetComplete and Osmose.
Last one is already including some suggestions
like that.
