Just another data point to add to the discussion:

JOSM currently warns that is_in=* tags are deprecated:
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/changeset/14917/josm

Generally, tagging suggestions in JOSM are not usually controversial
(unlike some of iD's tagging suggestions). Therefore, I usually delete such
tags if they are redundant to administrative boundary relations.

On the other hand, I would preserve them, or even add them (like for Brgy.
Quinawan, Bagac, Bataan[1]), if the boundary relation doesn't exist yet.
