HOT and OSM are slightly different, HOT maps on OSM but uses a simpler
more
standardized approach.
HOT uses the OSM database/platform and therefore it has to adapt and follow
OSM's rules. Nobody forces you to use OSM. Why don't you do something like
OpenHistoricalMap and use your own database basrd on OSM software?
Because contrary to the OpenHistoricalMap project, HOT contributors
typically map the same features that "regular" OSM mappers and users too
are interested in having in the main database (currently existing roads,
buildings, rivers, medical facilities, ...). Therefore using a separate
database would mean a lot more (duplicate) work for both projects (and
probably less complete and lower quality maps), so please keep the two
projects together.
