Strikethrough can somewhat obscure a <del>- hyphen</del>, <del>– dash</del>, or 
<del>− minus</del> just like a Chinese <del>一 one</del> or Japanese <del>ー long 
vowel mark</del>. It might be more of a problem on 1× displays than 2× 
displays, where the strikethrough can be half as thick. I’m less concerned 
about it than underlines, since an <ins>_ underscore</ins> has a special role 
in OSM tagging.

I guess there’s a potential caveat if someone tries to print out the page, 
since we’re relying on the cell backgrounds to provide contrast against the ± 
indicators. Strikethrough could help with that and the case where someone 
disables the stylesheet. But I’m pretty sure we haven’t given these use cases 
much consideration lately. If the only concern is about screen reader behavior, 
then we could wrap the old value in `<del>` and the new value in `<ins>` and 
use CSS to eliminate any styling of both tags in this table.
