Comment from mrlanduse
This is a revert of 20+ changesets of user "M!dgard". I consider splitting the same work into multiple changeset to hamper detection and possible revertion not as a good faith edit.

Comment from RussNelson
I agree. People are too ready to delete things based on aerial photographs without regard for the original editor who went to the place, and added a feature because he saw it.

> either line=bay or line=busbar, information was deleted by M!dgard

This is not true. You can view in the object's edit history that it was line=substation. This tag is not documented anywhere and it's not obvious, it's not clear what it should mean.
So I removed it to stop it from showing up as a suggestion in editors. iD suggests tags based on usage and nothing else, so this is the only way. -

@RussNelson: I think you should know that I didn't remove any features, only an attribute tag that wasn't useful to anyone because it was undefined.

By the way, the tag power=bay you're adding everywhere is incorrect in a lot (probably most) of the cases. The bay only starts where the lines connect to the stuff in the substation, not at the last tower.

I mean in https://osm.org/changeset/62598739 .
Re: "splitting the same work to hamper detection": I zoomed in to look at the individual regions before making the change, and did some other maintenance. I then proceeded to upload, then purge those objects. That, and avoiding to clutter the global history tab, were my motives to create small changesets.
