I see that silently, the meaning of the tag area has been modified by certain people on the wiki. I modified the wiki about "platform": http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dplatform We cannot accept that the tag "area=yes" is required for all polygons. This has never been the case. It was introduced only when the main tag about a closed loop was non-deterministic (tracing a centre line or a perimeter). We don't do that for car parks, buildings, etc. I don't see why we should create an exception for railway platforms.
