It'd be perfectly meaningful to say "in XYZ place there are lots of

Fine, so maybe we losen the Wiki definition a bit, saying that the
land _might_ be scheduled for future development. That leaves the
focus on the fact that the land had been used before.
Might is rather too pessimistic for me to place that in OSM. I would
prefer 'probable', both terms are subjective .. so some will object.
So I would have
the land _probably_ will be developed.

Yes that is a form of troll tagging, negating the key. Thus I'd prefer

I think it says what it was used for .. a disused church is still a church.
The question should be ... is it still recognisable for what it was?
