I just cleaned up a handful of junctions in the western provinces where refs were in the name tag, destination was in the name on the junction in addition to the link way, etc. Running an Overpass query for all of Canada (http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/DrL) now shows that there are almost 2000 of these in Ontario and Quebec, 2 in Nova Scotia, and 1 in Newfoundland. The last 3 look legitimate, but a quick scan of the ones in Ontario and Quebec shows that most are clear tagging-for-the-renderer. In a few test cases, the destinations are already on the link ways, so there's no need for the destination to be in the name on the junction nodes.
Does anyone have a good reason for keeping these as they are? My opinion is that these should all have the names removed when it's clearly the destination, and that this destination info should be added to the link way if it isn't already.

There are 755 junction nodes that have name tags. See https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/Dr9. Other provinces don't have nearly that many. The user breakdown for latest edit on those nodes doesn't really surface one mapper who consistently added these tags. See https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/Drf I'm inclined to leave it to the local Quebec community to say something more definitive about what, if anything, needs to be done with these name tags... I'm happy to set up a MapRoulette challenge to enable us to systematically look at these nodes..
