Is it preferable to keep the original GNIS tags if updating a GNIS object in OSM?
It's fine to leave or delete all GNIS tags. If creating an object with an area, I just copy all GNIS tags and merge tags from duplicate objects.
At one time, there was a plan for the USGS to use updated GNIS from OSM, but I think that plan has become stranded on the island of license incompatibility. Therefore, even the GNIS id tag isn't critical IMO.
