Maybe highway=bus_stop could be placed where passengers board the bus? Otherwise, we need a new relation (maybe type=stop_position?) to connect the stop position to the waiting area, as the route relations would only include one element (highway=bus_stop). Keeping the PTv2 route relations with platform and stop members just for these rare cases doesn't make sense IMO.
