Regardless of aesthetics, as pointed out here https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/371 the current access renderings are misleading and entice wrong tagging.
Playing devil's advocate here, how do we know this? That information doesn't appear to be on the pull request. What we have instead is "Given that most uses, particularly of access=destination are actually wrong (excludes access far all, including pedestrians for example)". What it'd be useful to have instead would be:
1) some examples of where access=destination is wrong (i.e. there really is more than "destination" access for specific modes and that isn't tagged) to help understand what the problem is perceived to be.
2) either a measurement of how widespread the problem is, or a description of how to measure how widespread the problem is.
Currently we don't have either of those - and without that there simply isn't the evidence to back up the proposed change. That doesn't mean that it can't / won't be found (hence "playing devil's advocate") just that we don't know yet.
Sometimes things that are "obvious" aren't actually true when you look at the data ("new iD users making more errors than new users of other editors" being an example of that, at least at the data that I looked at from England and Wales).
