I think we're definitely going for functional. The
kerb=flush would mean that there is a kerbstone (with all the
potential for localised puddling, misalignment, settling etc), whereas
kerb=no would mean there's a continuous tarmac surface - the latter
occurs either if someone is trying to make a very smooth transition
between the road and a cycle
I would be glad if it was revived. As we get ever more detailed
imagery, people are starting to want to split roads in two at every
intersection and it makes for a right mess: I'd prefer if there was a
more elegant way of handling divided roads in towns.
The routing stuff should be smothered -
When I had a go at re-writing it, I tried to give some clarity on the
boundaries with adjacent values (residential, tertiary, track) -
without being too country-specific. I'm not sure that the deleted
sentence is particularly helpful, so I'd leave it out on the
keep-it-simple principle.

Yes, but on the other hand deleting the cited part changed the
definition and made it more

That's a dropped kerb, which is probably semantically equivalent to
lowered. But dropped is the standard en-gb term.
Put the sidewalk tag on the road, and put some indicator on the
footway (I use adjacent=yes) that it's also covered by tagging on the
adjacent way.
The worst that happens is some router gets two parallel links in their
network, or that some super-clever algorithm identifies two parallel
sidewalks
I think you meant might be advised rather than need

If entrance=* is being used at all, you need to change your rendering to

They are called bus bays in EN-GB.
I'd probably add a suitable tag (bay=yes, maybe) to the highway=bus_stop
node (and maybe to a node on the road on the lines of busway:right=bay or
some such).
But I haven't tagged any (might be something to do with the negative value
I associate with them...)

Curious what negative value this is?
