Half of these aren't even for OpenBSD. Are these settings from some
guide to tuning another OS for use as a webserver or something like
that?

I think you should remove them all and only touch the defaults if you
encounter a specific problem and have understood how the change that
you're making will help. The defaults are pretty sane. The thing you
might want to monitor on a busy router is mbuf use (netstat -m) but
that's monitoring, not tweaking, unless you start having a problem.
