Not quite sure what you mean by "importance lower than railway=halt". A halt is a place where a train doesn't normally stop unless a would-be rider hails it. A bus stop that is so minor would certainly not qualify as a bus station, and I don't think it would fit the definition in the wiki unless you made a huge stretch. It certainly wouldn't resemble the photo or the example given in the wiki.
A typical non-intercity bus terminal would be a place (as described in the wiki) where several local lines converge, providing a transfer point. These typically have lanes dedicated to bus traffic and multiple platforms (...stands/wait_areas/dropoff-pickup-points...). They aren't intercity, but they are of major importance. In the Paris area, for instance, there is a major intercity terminal at Metro Gallieni, serving intercity buses. That fits your description of what you want to limit the tag to. But Gare Saint-Lazare is a major convergence point for regional and intracity buses. It fits the description I gave. I think it should remain as an amenity=bus_station.
