You can argue against machine-made non-reviewed translitterations, because they don't add anything that a data consumer couldn't and because they likely contain mistakes. But that's apparenlty not the case of the name:ru changeset that got reverted.
The source of the names in the reverted changeset is described in the changeset discussion http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/30451655 :
"to find russian names for places, I googled for English place names plus "достопримечательности", "погода" or some other russian word".
