I usually use amenity=place_of_worship for the whole area similar to
amenity=school and amenity=hospital.

Do not think landuse=religious is any landuse.

The problem with the numbers are that a small number of users did
introduce it and iD and JOSM way to early introduced presets for it,
even when the tag was by far established and the discussion about it on
this list was not finished, yet.
