To be honest, the world is 4D, not just 2D, but OSM is not well-suited to reflect it. Yet we try to do it anyway, because it's useful and achievable (height: S3DB, F3DB, ele..., time: opening hours, seasonal...). 2D is just the most natural in this project, and 1D (line objects) and 0D (points) are just "because it's easier/useful" for some reason (routing, lack of time, big scale rendering, lack of high precision aerial photos... etc.). You claim that points are "better verifiable" and "better for mappers" than areas - so I have shown it's basically not true, and just because I don't agree with both your dogmas I look like "2D dogmatic" (?) now. *** But while we are talking about 2D on Tagging list - there's something that bugs me for a long time. My proposition is to explicitly allow it in Wiki for objects like benches: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity%3Dbench I don't suggest disallowing node, but allowing more precise data. -- "My method is uncertain/ It's a mess but it's working" [F.
