I'm in favor of airstrips, but I would make airstrip a subcategory of
runway. So tagging an airstrip as runway is not wrong if you don't
know any better.
Anyway, is there a way to know if a runway is an airstrip from aerial
photos? Is grass surface enough to make something an airstrip? Does
this depend on the country/region? What if a grassy runway has a big
light that helps landing, is it a runway then? What if there is a very
small fee to land there. What's the line between them?

If the surface is the deciding factor from 'airstrip' to 'runway' then
simply use the 'surface=*' tag rather than have a new tag that has the
only difference being the surface.
Fee? there is a tag for that too .. fee=*, you could also have a
maxweight= tag too .. but these things are all property tags - they
should not cause a new aeroway tag.
