https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/grades#values overwhelmingly uses the dash to show a range, and to a lesser degree the comma to list multiple values. In fact this is what is suggested at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:grades. To use a semicolon in this context or something like grades:1=yes, grades:2=yes etc. goes against that common practice.
End of the day, it's easy for a computer to read "0-2" and "0 to 2" and "0,1,2" and "0;1;2" as all the same, so really mappers should be able to use what makes the most sense for them or what's less error prone and simpler, as they all should be easily interpreted by the downstream data consumer.
