With [tourism=attraction, attraction=aquarium] it would be instantly
supported by anything supporting tourism=attraction.
And while documenting it on wiki is absolute minimum it still means that
complexity of processing OSM data increases.
Probably many people never attempted to create something using OSM data,
but it is not as easy as most people think.
And I think that cascading styles are a good idea - after all how often
somebody cares specifically about aquariums?

For example that processing OSM data is more complicated than most people
expect see default map style bugtracker -
