Well, yes and no. People might remember that there once was a cafe. They might call the building "the cafe" even if its no longer a cafe "in use". So this is what the mapper *may* wanted to express. While I don't think the combination is well done, it but could well have its reasons. However, This obviously doesn't work pretty well in the 4th dimension, if you want to tag: this once was a cafe, before that a pub, before a bakery and before that a police_station. Another even simpler problem, if a node is tagged: shop=bakery amenity=police_station disused=yes disused refers to shop or amenity now?
