Even if OSM has a completely free data model (that is, you don't need anyone's permission), we try to moderate the Map features list for several reasons:

• landing page for newbies: so it has to be clear and self-explanatory in every language
• avoid feature conflicts: during a vote all eyes can keep duplicates away
• keep list/categories short: even a design decision, we want to avoid an uncontrolled explosion of features and keys
