If we get to a conclusion that natural=waterfalls is the whole area with
maybe several falls + rapids it would be better to start a new one and
describe the differences.
Right now

In addition, there is the more practical issue that often what is called a
waterfall is a series of cascades.
+1, while I'd consider your first point bike shedding, this second point is
indeed important for mapping waterfalls, hence the suggestion
In UK english, a series of waterfalls are called falls.

No, my not was about basic physics, admittedly a bit pedantic:
As most waterfalls have a horizontal movement component in addition to the

Niagara Falls are tagged as area with tag waterway=waterfall + natural=cliff.
For me waterway=waterfall is better for node or segment of waterway. Or with
key waterfall=yes
And natural=waterfall is better for large river that use riverbank. Only for
way or area. Render as cliff but blue.

IMHO no good reason for a duplicate. But it isn't completely clear which
tag would be the better one. What are

My argument is simply numbers: I presume that it will require manual work
to convert either to the other,

The Cascate delle Marmore is a clear case of waterway=waterfall, if you
want to be extra-precise, as it is man made. The waterway tag does not care
who made the way.

I was not serious. We also have natural=water, which we use for all kind of

yes, sorry, I was not only replying to you, there were Yves and Phil that
had similar comments about non-natural waterfalls.

Maybe waterway=waterfall could be a node on the way (or a a way, if
waterfalls are long), and natural=waterfall could be an area showing where
they are. A similar difference to waterway=river and waterway=riverbank.

maybe that's not a bad idea, waterway=waterfall could be a place where the
water is falling down

The first had a page osm very poor and the second is proposed feature, but

We have already discussed those inconsistencies
Hmmm.
Many, if not all waterfalls are *not* vertical in the strict sense of the
word.
