The problem, I believe is with iD's presets.
When I started mapping some years ago I always marked crossings as
zebras, then iD changed the preset to crossing =marked and I believe
that's what you're seeing with the increasing number of this tag.
Although iD presents the type selector within that element, with
"uncontrolled", "traffic_signs", "unmarked", "zebra", "no", "toucan",
"pelican" and others, most mappers just leave the first value, which is
"marked".

    I thought the correct tag for this was crossing_ref. Have you
    cross checked to see if they've been swapped instead of removed?



crossing_ref is a different kind of beast, as some people use it to
tell whether there are zebra markings (can also apply to traffic light
controlled crossings).

Frankly, I do not like the tag for zebra crossings, because this
approach requires me to set 3 tags (one of crossing=zebra / marked /
uncontrolled(?)  +, crossing_ref=zebra + highway=crossing, on every
zebra crossing while I could use 2 and be done (highway=crossing with
crossing=zebra).
