To avoid any misunderstandings this is not about individual tags, but
about the real world objects complete preset items describe.

The typical use of linked presets (and where they make most sense) is to
add "sets" of tags that would overload the preset in question  if added
as individual tags.

One of the frequent use of them in JOSM is for address and contact fields.

This is semantically something totally different than suggesting an
alternative preset item (because the current one might be a common
mistagging, the alternative might  be a more specific object, etc). And
because it is semantically different it should be presented differently.

See above, that is not actually how the majority of the linked presets
are used. The concept is a recent introduction (if it wasn't, please
explain why the "Similar but different tags:" text is necessary).

Again, see above.
