Which means each person is using them and not caring about
documenting... they need to be documented. I am not even sure if they
should be accepted.

The DTS describes hardware, not bootloader specific details. The
hardware - board - is defined by compatible and bootloader should use
it. Adding new properties because someone decided "I don't like
compatibles" is not appropriate.
