It's now possible to evaluate these issues. The import has moved into the synchronization phase. A few dozen imported locations have been located on the ground by mappers, and shuffled to their exact position.
The final choice on fuzzy match has been a simple 90 meter proximity search. So far all stations searched for have been found. The biggest problem came from out of the blue: there have been a dozen or so unique mappers using the tag to mark a bicycle shop, or in one case "a guy who fixes bicycles". In retrospect the tag name *bicycle_tool_stand *or* bike_self_repair_tools* might have been less confusing.
