good idea for tagging.
I didn't write this definition, but to me it seems to be intended as a
shortcut to say: "within a managed structure, with associated
infrastructure, managed, etc.", so clearly the "same" runway in an
airport and without any airport in proximity is not the "same" thing.
more constructively, you have suggested to tag airstrips as kind of
runway, what about tagging them as kind of aerodrome? There are
"already" 14 instances of
aerodrome:type=airstrip
in the data, while the runway key is mostly used for parts of the
runway (like blast pads).
In these 'airstips' there are no services - taxiways, etc.
I simply tag them as aeroway=runway.
But without any other areoway tags. So they don't get areoway=areodrome
nor anything else.
If they have services for aircraft then I'd add other tags.
