I'm fine to proceed with this. Worth noting you can see all current bundled maps here: https://github.com/ppy/osu/blob/master/osu.Game/Beatmaps/Drawables/BundledBeatmapDownloader.cs#L154
1. the "doesnt really give context on how a map was made and why a map was made the way it is" sounded like a fairly arbitrary guideline to me. theres already a download unavailable descriptor that violates this and i would argue bundled maps are at least as interesting/important as DMCAd maps or so.
2. lists are cool but they feel less official in a way? i could go make a list on my own but i might miss a map or two, or abandon it while new maps become bundled, at which point the list becomes obsolete and misleading and someone else has to make another list. the crowdsourced nature of descriptors feels much more apt to handle these issues imo.
As per bat's comment - this seems something more fitting for a list.
Wouldn't be 100% against it, but I think it falls in the same boat my rejected spotlights descriptor is in (A map being bundled doesn't really give context on how a map was made and why a map was made the way it is.), and this info might be better fitted on a list (in which "always bundled", random selected, and the former bundled maps like liquid and renatus can be specified as well) as opposed to being a descriptor.
Seems like a pretty natural descriptor. I THINK this file https://github.com/ppy/osu/blob/master/osu.Game/Beatmaps/Drawables/BundledBeatmapDownloader.cs#L27 lists the 20 "always bundled" + the randomly selected additional pool (though I'm not sure whether it applies to both lazer and stable I need someone to fact check me on that).
