We have very little control of how things will get rendered. So either you render yourself, or you use a service like umap.openstreetmap.fr
I'm still tagging bus_stops as highway=bus_stop, even though they are not highways and I'm not mapping them as a node of a highway. I stopped complaining about it, it's futile. So now they are all tagged redundantly. Once to make them show up on the standard map. One could call that tagging for the renderer, but who cares. And once as what they are public_transport=platform, bus=yes. Well, there isn't always a platform, but we don't have public_transport=flag_pole, so it will have to do. Oh, look at what you made me do; now it would seem like I'm complaining about it after all...
