I think that information critical to safety needs a higher level of

Also, I doubt anyone in ordinary life refers to a mountain as "Mount
So-and-So 2000 meters", rather than simply "Mount So-and-So".

Is there a case for a general mapping scheme for information that ceases to be
valid on a date and could be automatically removed afterwards?

your unreasonable example has nothing to do with elevation.
in any tag, nothing prevents a tool from being rational
in the values it saves or displays. I do not know what is
the best possible accuracy but an altitude measurement
Elevation doesn't go in "name" tag, that's quite obvious. But I think
elevations in feet shouldn't be discouraged. Maybe sometimes you have
iconic elevations of mountains in feet everybody knows and learns in
school, and they want to see that number exactly on a map, and not some
fraction after con

As key:evacuation_route is currently almost exclusively used on
relations anyway, it might make more sense to deprecate this tag and
instead define a new value for route=* on type=route relations (and
than add all the refinements that you propose)…

The wiki page for https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:ele says it

Or, indeed, you could put a conversion in the editor between the mapper typing
a figure in and the elevation being saved to the database.

as the wiki says: the name is only the name.
"Crown Point 11,463 ft" is not a name.
Elevation goes in the "ele" tag.
in meters if it's only a number.
