There's some reluctance in the US to use that tag for things that are not
national (Adirondack Park) or not parks (Green Mountain National Forest).
Those two examples are specific ones for which boundary=national _park
seemed the least misleading legacy tagging. Leisure=nature_reserve gets
applied to the more strongly protected areas inside.

I'm working hard to make sure that New York is ready for the new schema,
and I've added about 1500 boundary=protected_area tags over the last few
months. Don't punish me by saying that I must remove the less informative
tagging and have all that work disappear from the rendering while I'm
waiting for the database and renderer  to catch up. That's all I'm asking.

It seems that some of the purists here are answering, 'No. If you want to
see state forests, render the map yourself.' I do render it myself. I still
think other people would want to see them, too.
