Hi Mitja,

I've drafted two opposing proposals on whether capacity/seats should be tagged on benches without a functional separation into seats or not.

The purpose is to find out if there is a community consensus on this question.

"Sure, it's fine to tag capacity, even if there is now functional separation":
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Bench:_Tag_capacity,_even_if_no_separation

"No way! -- This is not objective":
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Bench:_Do_not_tag_capacity_if_no_separation

*NOTE:* Please discuss *both* proposals on the discussion page with the positive statement:

This revert makes sense to me.

BTW, one may count both seats and capacity on benches, why not

One might even decide to tag

instead (or in addition) to `seats`, as is it actually (reproducably) 
measurable instead of guessable
(i.e. are we talking about how many thinly 3 years olds _or_ have super-obese 
adults can fit there?)
