This is not my understanding of the layer tag. It is a tool to help renderers place

it has implications on real world topology: it says which object is above and
which below when they cross, it is not only for rendering
Disagree. A bridge at the top of Everest would be tagged 'layer=1'
exactly as it would be if in Death Valley (86m below sea level)
For instance if you had an area tagged 'park' & another area within it tagged
'lake' you could add a 'layer' tag to 'lake' to ensure the render displayed it.
-1, you should not add any layer in this case (tagging for the renderer)
The correct expression is 'don't tag incorrectly for the renderer'.
There's /nothing/ wrong in making OSM data clearer & more accurate.
