On the contrary, I have a feeling this would increase complexity. Right now, if you invent a new tag, for example "amenity=slow_food_restaurant", there is a very small chance renderers will pick it up. And if renderers don't pick it up, other mappers won't. But if the renderer renders the whole "places where you eat for money" with a spoon and fork icon, then you can use that tag with no fear that it will become unused and forgotten. Right now people cram various real-life objects into well known tags just because they are rendered. How is this not flattening complexity? Janko
