Martin's "reply to some unilaterally writing on the key:historic page..." and "intended to say (something extraordinary) on one end and on the other end (something vague)" sort of "nudge ahead" this dizzying proposal, but not by much. I'm not complaining at the extra clarification. But it

I truly oversimplify as I say this, re-definitions of tags is problematic. It results in a long-term destruction of OSM's own data. In short, you believe your preconceived notions of "knowing better" or "knowing it all" (or something like that) is better than "what OSM already says." Now, I
