It appears you're stuck between a rock and a hard place. According to the
Wiki you can not use amenity=public_building (although I do not understand
why its use is deprecated) and must use building=public. I can see why you
object to this but such buildings are, in one sense, public in that they
are publicly owned. And many such "public" buildings are not open to the
public, for example, prisons.

Perhaps, you could tag individual buildings with building=public and then
create an area with tags defining the type of space more thoroughly.

Regds,
Dave
