As Simon P says "we allow and support progression from rough to more
detailed."
To use your terrace example:
building=yes is OK, but far from perfect
building=terrace is good, but there's still room for improvement
mapping each house & tagging them building=house/office etc is much
better especially if combined with other tags such as addresses.
What detail you decide to map to is up to you, depending on time & patience.

There is the terrace value, but that implies one orderly structure,
not the hodgepodge of houses, buildings and extensions that define
organically grown blocks.
There are a couple of "multiple" values too, which make sense, but is
undocumented and maybe overly precise.
