The premise that bike lanes aren't lanes is an inherently flawed one to start with.  Up there with defining routes as a ref=* tag on constituent ways, and yet, route relations are a thing with the need for tagging ref=* waning.  The idea that this is an unfixible problem is short sighted.

The decision to not redefine the meaning of lanes=* was a deliberate one made in the original :lanes proposal:

The discussion is here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Talk:Proposed_features/lanes_General_Extension#Relevance_of.2Frelationship_to_lanes_key

I'm not surprised. It is hard enough to get a proposal up, just try getting one up that proposes to redefine lanes=*.
