OSM Carto maintainers refusing to render approved `highway=busway`

The tag highway=busway was approved years ago. The OSM Carto maintainers refuse to support it, despite several pull requests (1, 2). For good or bad, OSM Carto is the OpenStreetMap map (sic). OSM Carto is not a private rendering to satisfy the maintainer’s ideas of tagging. Therefore, the maintainer‘s reservations about the community-approved highway=busway tag should not hold back the map.

I request the OSM foundation overrides the maintainers in accepting a pull request to render highway=busway. If this is not the correct venue to contact the OSM foundation on this matter, let me know which one is.
