I'm firmly of the opinion that this is not work for a bot unless a tag

Wholly agree.
A bot will just replicate the OS errors and then we'll never find them!
Also agreed.
I too have checked everything I have modified. A bot is just a lazy way
of reaching some arbitrary target of completeness and completely misses
the benefit of a survey. It will provide a phoney status that can be
used in meetings to show how wonderful OSM is, when actually all of the
OS errors will be incorporated into our DB when we can avoid them by
simply checking on the ground.
OS Locator is a great way of using OS surveyors to warn OSM surveyors
that there are new places to check :-)
