Is this proposal functionally any different from the water outlet
proposal? https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Water_outlet
I'm alright with using a name different from fountain since a lot of
people disagree on that name.
By doing all this you're effectively deprecating amenity=fountain;
that's strange to me.
I would not tag decorative fountains as tourism as those are not
necessarily there for tourism; you have fountains in hidden places that
have never seen a tourist...
Moreover, this would require retagging a lot of objects, and it cannot
even be done mechanically because you'd end up mistagging the fountains
which are not decorative.
