I think it's useful to differentiate/subdivide areas where there are noticeable changes in landuse: don't be too enthusiastic about lumping stuff together. This is because it adds texture to maps, particularly at smaller scales, and makes them more readable by people who read maps as sequences of landmarks, rather than constructing a simplified 2D plan in their heads (ie most women). I'm not sure this justifies a huge range of new values though: in some ways it's better to concentrate on identifying retail and commercial areas within residential/industrial, and so on.
