Yes, ok – so ‘aging myself’ a bit – but I did all my locale TIGER cleanup with 
P2, so my practice was to review/almost always fix geometry, then look at 
‘function’/classification of the roadway, then just delete the reviewed tag and 
automagically those uid tags and such would go away. So it seems now we are 
talking that even more original TIGER tags are ‘useless’ and should be removed, 
which I have no problems with, I’m sure there were several dozen I just deleted 
everything (sometimes the entire way) because the road was actually a driveway 
or otherwise completely wrong.

I’ve deleted thousands of tiger:reviewed tags (after proper review) and have 
never seen JOSM take anything else along for the ride.  JOSM *does* remove the 
yellow glow around ways once you remove tiger:reviewed, but that’s all I’ve 
seen.

Russell is probably referring to this:

I think most of these are gone by now.
