I agree - it's courtesy tagging, but since the node is already there,
it seems fairly harmless to tag it with something if/when people move
railway=tram_stop to a node beside the way. It doesn't introduce
complexity in the way that relations do.

I'm quite happy if people want to leave tram_stop on the track for the
moment. It's not ideal in terms of pedestrian routing, but that can
wait.
