No. That change would not be okay.

AFAIK the correct tagging scenario is

highway=traffic_calming
traffic_calming=bump (or chicane, or other types as stated in the wiki
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:traffic_calming)

This is a hierarchical system of tagging that works well in other
situations. I suppose you could make an argument for using only the last
one but that needs a full discussion first.
