I only remove the TIGER tags when either the original name was wrong, or the
area was created by pencil sketchings and so many streets are misplaced.
Other than that, the original TIGER tags are useful to determine the source
or original naming at a glance without needing to request a history dump.
It is still premature to just dump all the TIGER tags just because they
aren't useful for rendering or map data consumers.
One responded that it was because they were sometimes wrong (which is, of
course, true, for those roads that we've corrected) and that they did not
seem to provide any useful data.
