Admittedly, 2) is a bit ambiguous in the RFC; Marc-Andre as the closer
may be able to clarify whether I got it right.
IMO, that specific aspect wasn't discussed sufficiently clearly to say
whether the consensus goes either way.
Definitely, there is consensus that locally specified values /must/
override Wikidata-derived ones when they are present; but there was very
little discussion about whether it was appropriate to remove that local
value or when it would be okay to do so.
Wearing my community hat, I'd recommend that this be proposed to the
community first; possibly framing it as "look, it's been working pretty
darn well; it makes sense to start defaulting to Wikidata where
uncontroversial since the capability to override the local value remains
in case of issues."
