I'm not sure this is quite the place for this discussion but Europe also has some bus routes that pick up and drop off on request. Just don't map none existent stops.
Ottawa Canada has fixed stops as do many other locations in North America. I suggest you try to map following the wiki map features. If someone is changing your tags then discuss the matter with them as is the traditional way to resolve the problem.
