What if you explicitly define the POIs on the map? Taking a building with
amenity=supermarket as an example, you might want to define a bank=atm POI
somewhere near the entrance and amenity=supermarket,building=entrance at
the entrance. There might also be "shop within shop" or a "mini-mall" at
the supermarket, such as cafe, hairdresser, shoes, you name it. None of
these would be automatically generated by add-pois-to-areas, and you would
not get the POI at the main entrance of the building. In fact, you could
get it outside the building if it is U- or L-shaped.
