Indeed. The current mess is especially disappointing because it hasn't always been that way: The status quo is the result of an attempt to "improve" the tagging years ago. From my point of view, it's plainly obvious that there should be only one main tag instead of two. Details on whether the area is used for forestry, whether it is in a "natural" state (whatever that means), or other such information can be gathered in addition to that main tag. Gathering that secondary information should not be a requirement for being able to map the forest/wood in the first place. > all areas of trees should > be primarily tagged as natural=wood.
