I would not tag a zoo or a farm as "commercial" landuse. landuse=commercial
in OSM is basically about administration, because retail has its own tag.
On the other hand I agree, as there wasn't a definition (beside an example)
for this for a very long time, the meaning of the tag may not be clear in
general, and eventually, retail may be considered a subclass of a
commercial landuse (as well in OSM). It is not completely unseen to have
different levels of specifity on the same level of landuse (e.g.
landuse=farmland / orchard / vineyard /...). Basically, landuse is a mess,
and it tends to get worse with the time (e.g. landuse=religious which may
be orthogonal to residential, commercial, ... ). Different readings are
normal because the tag is not well defined.
