The wording of some arguments could be misleading:
1) "toddler" - There was no thought about special baby seats like in cars. Thus
the use of this value shall be set deprecated.
2) "toddlerCompartment" - Some operators do have special compartments not only
for family but for mothers with small child (Mutter mit Kind). Thus I would
leave this value in the list.
3) "stroller" - Yes, the capacity for accomadate strollers/prams is needed. I
would use this value instead as it is better wording than "toddler".
4) "strollerCompartment" - I would see the need either.

Best regards,
