OK, but if we have to keep  highway=bus_stop anyway, then one could also
say that it's not needed to add public_transport=platform to such nodes
anymore.

True. There is no requirement for public_transport tags. PTv2 adds nothing new.



And if we do that, then those nodes don't really need roles in the route
relations either,

The problem with PTv2 is that it was an attempt to streamline how buses
were mapped based on how railway was mapped,

Even if all existing transit (PTv1) tags were removed PTv2 wouldn't be 'streamlined' as it reuires at least twice the number of tags to represent the same processes.
